Attraction to Large Buttocks Ends Badly for Athens Resident

A Cleveland Road resident who chatted up a woman because he was attracted to her ample posterior ended up with a stab wound and a visit to the Athens Regional emergency room early Monday morning.

According to a story in the Athens Banner Herald, the 48-year-old victim told police he spotted a large-bottomed woman at a Shell gas station on Commerce Road and stopped to β€œholler” at her.

Β As the two were talking, a man emerged from the station and exchanged words with the victim, who later told police he had been flirting with the woman. The man slapped the victim in the face, and then the victim then knocked him down, the story says.

As the victim was returning to his truck, he told police the other man stabbed him in the back. The story says the victim described the assailant as a tall dark-skinned black man with large hair.
