Woman arrested after fight over chicken and biscuits

MGN

BUNNELL, Fla. (AP) – Deputies say a woman has been charged with domestic battery after she and her mother got into an argument over chicken and biscuits.

The Daytona Beach News-Journal (http://bit.ly/1Ng2YI1 ) reports 31-year-old Kristin Michelle Howard was arrested Friday. Authorities say the Flagler County Sheriff’s Office was called to a mobile home park in Bunnell around 11:30 p.m. Deputies say Howard’s mother, Kimberly Miller, accused her of coming home drunk and angry and making a plate of chicken and biscuits.

Authorities say Miller and Howard argued over who owned the food and Howard punched her mother in the face and threw tea on her.

Court records show this is Howard’s sixth battery arrest since February 2008. She has since been released from jail.

It is unclear if Howard has a lawyer.
