Kimberly Jean Carroll. Manatee County Sheriff's Office
A couples dinnertime conversation turned into a violent altercation at a home in Ellenton, Florida, last week, according to an arrest affidavit from the Manatee County Sheriffs Office.
A deputy from the agency responded to a domestic disturbance call last Wednesday evening.
According to the sheriffs office report, an individual said his live-in girlfriend, identified as Kimberly Jean Carroll, had hit him with a closed fist during an altercation seemingly over table manners.
The victim said the fight started over how he cut his meat and potatoes for their dinner, read the complaint.
After being struck, the victim told the officer that Carroll spit in his direction.
The man refused medical attention and did not want to press charges.
The 55-year-old defendant was placed under arrest for simple battery, a misdemeanor, and given a no contact order.
