Lethal Weapon Update

Last week you brought you the scintillating story of the woman who used a dead chihuahua puppy as a weapon to beat another woman over the head. As you may recall, the assailant had bought a puppy from a breeder. The puppy was too young and died before it could be returned. In an attempt to get a replacement puppy, a scuffle ensued and the dead puppy assault weapon was deployed.

Well, the St Louis Post-Dispatch reports that the assailant has been charged with trespassing and third-degree assault. The breeder has returned the money. No word on the weapon.
