CHICAGO, Illinois - October 17, 2011 - Sweet treats turned sour for a Chicago woman when she was charged with assault after allegedly pelting her husband with cupcakes.
Arturo Montesdeoca, 56, called police after his wife, Dawn, 60, began to hit him during an argument at their home late Saturday, the Chicago Sun-Times reported.
The verbal argument turned violent when Dawn Montesdeoca reached for a box of the bakery items and began throwing them at her husband one by one, according to the Chicago Tribune.
