Dumping rotten fish outside shop act of revenge

[n2doc]

SALLY KIDSON

A Golden Bay fisherman whose wife became violently ill after eating a takeaway gluten-free pizza, took revenge on the shop by dumping 100 fish carcasses outside the shop.

Police prosecutor Sergeant Graeme Eden said Leigh Kelly admitted dumping the fish outside the takeaway business attached to the Pohara Store because he was angry at having paid more for a gluten-free pizza and he believed it was not gluten free after his wife got ill.

Mr Eden said Kelly owned a fishing charter business and over the weekend of March 18 was involved in organising a fishing club's visit to Golden Bay to go fishing.

He said on the Sunday night Kelly had been drinking at home and drove to Pohara General Store and emptied a large chilly bin on to the picnic table and waiting area at the front of the shop.

1. An over reaction, but pretty funny. nt

2. I wouldn't call it an overreaction!

Ever seen what can happen to a celiac who gets glutened? That shit's UGLY. A pile of fish to clean up is NOTHING compared to a bleeding ass and a week of stomach pain.

4. My ex-foster son has a gluten allergy.

His ass never bleed, but he did shit himself when he ate gluten.

5. A better question would be "is the shopkeeper personally responsible"

Are the pizzas made there or provided by a supplier. That kind of thing

3. Not necessarily an overreaction

Gluten reactions can be severe.

Wouldn't be quite so funny if it were a peanut allergy, would it? Peanut allergies can kill in minutes.
