Jennifer Brassard, 48, has been charged with misdemeanor domestic battery for allegedly throwing a frozen pork chop at her boyfriend's face

A Florida woman has been arrested on a domestic battery charge after authorities say she hurled a frozen pork chop at her boyfriend's face.

According to the Pasco County Sheriff's Office, the meaty projectile struck the 54-year-old victim in the eyebrow, leaving him with a half-inch laceration.

The man's girlfriend, 48-year-old Jennifer Brassard, fled right after the incident on February 1, but she was picked up by deputies the following morning.

According to a criminal complaint obtained by The Smoking Gun, at around 9.45pm on February 1, Brassard and her live-in boyfriend of one year were beefing when the verbal spat escalated, with the woman grabbing the frozen chop and launching it at the man's head.

The investigation found that the 5-foot-1, 130-pound Brassard was the 'primary aggressor' during the dispute.

She was released from jail on February 3 after posting $250 bond.
