Can You Guess What This Person Was Charged With?

If you guessed spraying gasoline on a woman who criticized her for smoking at a gas pump, you are a genius. Kimberly Brinton, of Meshoppen, Pa., was arrested for aggravated assault and other charges at the Mehoopany Dandy Mart, about 30 miles northwest of Scranton.


Brinton was smoking while pumping gas when another customer noted the obvious danger. She then told Brinton to put it out. She then threw windshield clean on Brinton to try to put out the cigarette. The woman then tried to drive away and Brinton allegedly screamed that she was going to light her on fire and sprayed her with gasoline. If that is not weird enough, the victim then slipped on the gasoline getting out of her car and broke her arm.

Since the injury was a response to the alleged attack, the injury can be charged against Brinton. Truly bizarre.
