He said the woman got upset and came outside where he was sitting. The alleged biscuit beatdown happened as the woman “swung the bag of frozen biscuits and struck his forehead.”

A biscuit is a type of soft bread often raised with baking powder or soda. Myriad recipes exist for sweet and savory varieties.

Some enjoy spreading butter and jelly on biscuits, while others prefer them with sausage and/or eggs. A traditional southern breakfast is “biscuits and gravy,” which features biscuits covered with gravy.

Meanwhile, the alleged frozen biscuits wielding woman said she struck the victim on accident. She said she was trying to hit someone else.

She said the victim’s wife kicked her in the side, but investigators saw no signs of injury.
