Elderly Man With a Big Stick Beat Downs Wife


Sam Taormina, a 92-year-old man from Mesa, Ariz., was arrested and charged with assault after putting a Chris Brown-style beat down on his wife last Saturday night.

AZ Central reports:
Taormina's wife, whose age was unavailable, told police that she and her husband got in an argument and that he punched her in the face several times. When she fell on the ground, Taormina began to choke her, she said. She also told police that he bit her lower lip, kicked her and hit her with a cane. She had several abrasions on her face and neck, along with a swollen lip and bloody left hand. Taormina admitted to police that he punched, choked, and struck his wife with a cane, police said. He denied biting or kicking her. After Taormina was booked on assault charges, Mesa Police received a 911 hang-up call from Taormina's residence. When police arrived, Taormina's wife complained of chest pains, police said. She was transported to a local hospital where X-Rays revealed her to have a fractured rib.
Old man Taormina needs some community service or some time in the clink.
