Chicken Fight

Florida Man Arrested After Throwing Knife At Brother “Over Some Chicken”

Florida man is at it again, this time two brothers arguing “over some chicken,” and one of them getting a knife in the leg.

According to a complaint affidavit by the St. Petersburg Police Department, officers responded to a home on 4oth Street South in St. Pete at 9:30 pm on June 14th. Police say that 19-year-old Messiah Harris-Smith, 19, and his brother Josiah disagreed over chicken.

“The defendant and the victim got into an argument over some chicken. The defendant used a kitchen knife and threw it at the victim,” said St. Pete Police in the affidavit.

“The knife stuck in the victims right leg,” said Police. “The victim will need to receive stitches.”

According to the affidavit, the brother, Josiah, told police that he did not want to press charges.

Previously, on January 29 of this year, Messiah Harris-Smith was arrested for striking his mom after a verbal argument escalated. Police say Harris-Smith pushed his mom and yelled, “I’ll F***ing Kill You.”

Harris-Smith was released from Pinellas County Jail on his own recognizance in both cases.
