It is asking too much for couples to resolve their differences by, say, intelligent conversation and win-win negotiation?  And, if you need a snack, try, maybe some dry roasted peanuts?

HUTCHINSON, Kan. (AP) — Police say a Hutchinson woman bit off the end of her husband’s finger during an argument at their home over the weekend. And investigators believe Adelghun Khinde Johnson, 45, may have swallowed the fingertip because it was nowhere to be found.

Lt. Clay Rothe said the woman hit her husband, David Johnson, three times and he pushed her away as they quarreled Saturday night.

Rothe said, “She then grabbed his right hand and bit the tip of the index finger off at the first joint. We could not find the finger.”

Police said Adelghun Johnson, a native of Trinidad, was arrested on suspicion of aggravated battery. She was released early Sunday on $5,000 bond.

Johnson is to make her first appearance Friday in Reno County District Court. According to court records, she does not yet have an attorney.

Have you ever heard something and thought, “What was he thinking?”  Try this one.  Maybe this guy majored in economics in college and was advocating for a new currency.  Well, maybe not.

Report: New Zealand man tries to buy snack with pot

 

WELLINGTON, New Zealand (AP) — A New Zealand man who offered to pay with marijuana when he did not have enough money for a snack was caught by a police officer who overheard his unusual proposal, a news report said Tuesday.

Wade Churchward, 28, went to a service station on March 22 in the capital, Wellington, where he picked up two packets of M&Ms candy and some potato chips, the Dominion Post newspaper reported.

Churchward, who had been drinking, began snacking on the goods while standing in line at the cash register.

But when he reached the cashier, he realized he did not have enough money, and instead offered a container with 0.042 ounces of marijuana and a pipe for smoking it.

Churchward failed to notice a patrol car parked outside and a police officer standing behind him in line – who promptly arrested him.
