Third-degree burns, stitches for brothers-in-law fighting over frying pan

SOUTH BEND — A dispute over the ownership of a frying pan led to third-degree burns for one South Bend man and 11 stitches for another, police reports said.

A 49-year-old man was cooking bacon on the stove at a house in the 600 block of Lincoln Way East when his 47-year-old brother-in-law claimed the pan was his, the report said.

The argument led to the man cooking cornering the younger man into a closet and spilling hot grease on the younger man. The report said the 47-year-old then grabbed the pan from his attacker and hit him in the head twice.

Police did report finding two pieces of bacon in the closet.

He should be arrested for wasting bacon.

I'll bet that fight rendered them both speechless. And the rasher the argument, the more dangerous it gets, eh bijou?
