A confrontation in an Ohio Walmart led to one woman being struck in the face by a 10-pound pack of meat earlier this week, according to police.
The incident started Tuesday when the two women crossed paths in the potato chip aisle, according to South Euclid police. It’s unclear what started the altercation, but police later learned that the woman who was attacked had a protection order out against the other woman from when they lived in the same duplex.
According to the report, after the two made eye contact, the protected woman was confronted by the other woman, who threatened to beat her and her 7-year-old daughter. She then pulled down her mask and attempted to spit on the woman, police said.
It was then that the attacker reached into the protected woman’s shopping cart, pulled out “a 10-pound log of prepackaged meat,” and struck her in the face with it, according to police.
The woman, 25, was arrested and charged with assault and violating a temporary protection order. Police did not identify either party in their post.
“It is unknown as to what initially led to the beef between the two women,” police quipped at the end of the statement.
