Police: Woman broke window over beer

Posted on: Thursday, 1 October 2009, 15:48 CDT

A Florida woman angry at her boyfriend for refusing to buy more beer allegedly tired to choke him and threw a table leg through a window, authorities said.

Police in Fort Pierce, Fla., said the boyfriend told them his live-in girlfriend, Andrea Elizabeth Bathgate, 31, became angry after drinking a lot of beer Tuesday night and he refused to buy her more because she became aggressive while intoxicated, TCPalm.com reported Thursday.

Investigators said the man told the woman to leave and she attempted to choke him before exiting. Bathgate then allegedly broke a leg off an outside table and threw the hard missile through a window of the residence, causing deadly shards of glass to be forcefully launched into the occupied residence, the arrest affidavit states.

Bathgate was arrested and charged with misdemeanor battery and a felony count of throwing a missile into a dwelling.
