Brandon Doan admitted before a judge on Tuesday that he grabbed his girlfriend and smushed her face into a pizza just before she shot him.

"I grabbed her by the hair and gently smushed the pizza in her face. She quickly shot me," Doan told Judge Lori R, Hackenburg in Snyder County Court.

The (Sunbury) Daily Item reported that Jennifer Boop was arrested after the October 12 incident, which began when the pair were arguing over dinner. After the fight culminated in Doan throwing Boop and her two young daughters out, she was in the process of packing when the shooting happened.

Investigators said in October that Boop grabbed a handgun and shot Doan in the armpit. Boop told police that Doan had grabbed her by the hair before smashing the pizza in her face, and that she was trying to get Doan to let her go.

"I went to the kitchen, screaming, 'You shot me,'" Doan said in court. "She said she didn't mean to do it."

Boop did not testify during the hearing. She remains in county jail in lieu of bail.

Doan was in the hospital for two weeks after the shooting and testified that he does not have full use of his left arm.
