A Florida woman is facing the charge of battery and it is all because her husband could not stop tooting.

This is how it all went down with play-by-play via CBS 12 (who really should win an award for news writing on this):

Donald Fitzroy Meikle told police that his wife, Dawn, elbowed him on the arm when he passed gas in bed. This happened early in the morning on Dec. 11. Meikle said she eventually kicked him out of bed because his flatulence wouldn’t stop.

The victim said his wife let him back into bed. He passed gas again, according to the report, and she started to kick and elbow him again. Meikle said he held his wife for his own safety. During the struggle, she suffered a broken lip and he suffered a lot of scratches across his chest.

Donald’s wife called 911.

Police said she also sprayed pepper spray to keep her husband out of the bathroom.

Police arrested Dawn Meikle for domestic battery and she was taken to jail, where, hopefully the other inmates were not served chili that day.
