Welcome to Arrest Stories. A forty-eight-year-old Florida woman turned a children's party toy into a weapon during a bizarre restaurant attack that left a man bleeding and needing medical attention. Here's what may have happened.
Last Thursday evening at the OCC Road House restaurant on Forty-ninth Street North in Pinellas Park, what started as a confrontation quickly escalated into an unusual assault. Krystl Watts allegedly approached a male victim inside the establishment before unleashing an attack that investigators are calling anything but ordinary.
According to police reports, Watts first blasted the unsuspecting man with Silly String, covering him in the colorful party spray. But the assault didn't end there. After emptying the container on her target, Watts allegedly hurled the empty Silly String can directly at the victim's head with enough force to cause significant injury.
The impact left a laceration on the victim's forehead that required immediate medical attention. Emergency responders treated the injured man at the scene for his wounds before he was released.
Law enforcement officials responded to the chaotic scene at the popular restaurant, where witnesses had observed the strange weapon of choice. One official commented on the incident, stating it's definitely unusual to see such an unconventional item used in an assault case.
The attack has left the local community scratching their heads over the bizarre nature of the confrontation. Restaurant patrons were reportedly stunned to witness party supplies being weaponized during what appeared to be a targeted attack.
Watts now faces misdemeanor battery charges stemming from the Thursday evening incident. Court records show she was processed with a bond set at one thousand dollars following her arrest by Pinellas Park Police Department.
The investigation into what prompted the Silly String assault remains ongoing, as authorities work to determine the relationship between Watts and her alleged victim, along with any potential motive behind this unconventional attack.
