Not to be confused with Florida Man Attacks Girlfriend with Sauerkraut.
Police Arrest Man, 34, Following Unprovoked Potato Salad Attack On His Mother
August 26, 2015
There has been a potato salad attack reported in Florida.
Days after a Sunshine State resident was nabbed for attacking his girlfriend with a plate of sauerkraut, a Bradenton man is facing a domestic battery charge for allegedly pelting his mother with potato salad during a confrontation in their home.
Jonathan Smith, 34, was arrested Saturday evening after his mother Jennifer told cops that he attacked her as she sat down to eat dinner (potato salad and chicken) in the living room.
Jonathan grabbed a hand full of potato salad and threw it, striking his mother in the face, reported cops, who noted that the woman had food all over her and in her hair when they arrived at the residence. Though his mother yelled for him to stop, Smith continued to throw food at his mother, according to a probable cause affidavit.
