Meanwhile, in Florida

Shawtaine Natasha Hayes, 37, of Lake Park, Florida, stabbed a man the morning of Thanksgiving because she mistook him for a “turkey." According to police, Shawtaine -- who was drinking heavily -- picked up two butcher knives and threatened the 62-year-old man. The man told police Shawtaine then stabbed him in the abdomen and in the shoulder. When officers arrived, she told them she didn’t stab the man, but instead he stabbed himself then wiped blood all over the home and on her face. The victim (who was probably drunk, too) was uncooperative with officers and insisted that Shawtaine didn’t mean to stab her, but “thought he was a turkey.” Despite that colorful explanation, Shawtaine was arrested and charged with aggravated battery and aggravated assault with a deadly weapon.
