I almost didn't cover this because I wasn't sure what to say, other than "Honey, it's time for break-up."
Heath Blom of Portsmouth, New Hampshire wanted a $1000 RC toy airplane from his grandparents for Christmas, and when he didn't receive a luxury children's toy, he was apparently very angry indeed. He decided to take it out on his girlfriend, Randi Young, who had given him a new Wii console for Christmas that he apparently hadn't much wanted, by loudly "disparaging" the gift to her. Everything gets super-trashy from there, as Young's attempts to leave the house early erupted into a fistfight that left both sides "bruised and battered", and got both people arrested when the cops showed up.
He dragged me down two flights of stairs, by the hair, Young claimed on Friday.
But Blom said, I stood in the doorway trying to block her. She punched me in the eye. She punched me three times. I said Thats it. And I pulled her hair.
Classy. Don't worry, though: Blom told his grandparents they could buy him the $1000 toy plane for his birthday in April.
