An Austin man "grinded" on a woman at a bar before calling her a "the dumbest b****h (he) had ever met" and throwing a glass at her face, causing blood to "gush" from her face, police said.

Christopher Taber Depolo, 29, has been charged with aggravated assault causing serious bodily injury, a second-degree felony, in the April 17 incident.

The woman told Austin police that she was with friends at The Container Bar — located in the popular Rainey Street bar district in downtown Austin — when she felt a hand around her waist and someone "grinding" on her from behind, according to a criminal complaint filed in Travis County court on Thursday....

Depolo responded by berating the woman in a mocking tone and blocked the doorway, according to the complaint.

Dude, this is not what they mean by "Keep Austin Weird"!

1. What's up with Austin recently? I used to love living in that city, but most of the stories that hit

the national wire nowadays from there are terrible.

4. Gentrification

Once ordinary folks start getting priced out, the place starts to go to hell because of the anxiety produced by the changes.

6. I lived there 17 years

last time I was there, it was like a mini-Dallas

2. Over the line and unacceptable.

3. That looks like roid rage incarnate. nt

5. So how is a guy supposed a let a girl know he's interested if he can't do this?

7. *HAR*

that's like the people who claim they just don't know WHAT a gun humper is

8. Someone did that to me once a long time ago...

but didn't get to slam me with a glass because two seconds after contact in one swift move I broke his nose with my elbow and he was out of by the time he hit the floor. I let someone else call an ambulance for him. He was lucky that he was unconscious with the first blow, I would have hit him a few more times just to make sure he got the message. I was buffed out like SheRa back then, big mistake for that clown.

One of his buddies was gonna accost me too but I challenged him, looked him right in the eye and asked him if he wanted to join his pal in the ambulance. He slithered away while everyone else laughed at him.

That happened in Texas too.

This worthless POS loser is gonna get some time in the joint I think.

He kind of has a Ted Cruz face with hair!

13. Someone did the same thing to me too at a crowded frat party

at UVM. I told him to knock it off a number of times and when he wouldn't I turned around and grabbed his crotch as hard as I could. The look of shock on his face was priceless. Of course, I was a bit drunk when I did it, but I don't regret it. He had it coming.

9. I hope he gets ten years the evil prick

10. 75,000 dollars bond? That woman's injuries are horrific. He could have blinded her for life.

Feel sorry for the people who used to live on Rainey Street and had to get out of the way for a raging (but, hey, hipper!) alternative to 6th Street. Went down there to meet friends once several years ago and would never go back. Marauding packs of drunk college kids... no thanks. In so, so many ways Austin ain't what it used to be. Makes me so sad...

12. Serious injuries

The woman suffered a litany of injuries, including a broken nose which also suffered cuts, cuts and blunt trauma to her eye, blood in her front eye chamber, a fractured tear duct, a torn iris, ocular trauma and broken blood vessels.

14. He should be paying her medical bills too

and I hope he never sees the outside of a crossbar hotel without leg irons on.
