FORT PIERCE — A woman accused of cutting a man with a glass crack pipe appears also to have sliced herself as she plucked the pipe from her private parts, according to an arrest affidavit.

Rosalia Garcia, 28, of Okeechobee, was arrested Oct. 31 after the incidents in Fort Pierce in the 1900 block of Delaware Avenue.

The man identified as the victim told Fort Pierce police that he and Garcia argued about $20. He said she got aggressive so he called 911. He told police that while he was on the phone Garcia cut his neck with a glass crack pipe.

Garcia denied it, saying the victim cut himself while shaving.

The victim said Garcia is a crack addict. Garcia conceded she uses crack, but said she threw the crack pipe away two days earlier.

The victim said Garcia may have flushed the pipe down the commode.

On the way to jail, Garcia told police she had a crack pipe in her vagina, an area not often associated with storing goods and sundries.

A female officer escorted Garcia to a restroom, and Garcia extracted the smoking device.

“After the removal of the glass pipe, Rosalia stated she thinks she cut herself with the glass crack pipe,” the affidavit states.

Garcia was arrested on charges including aggravated battery and possession of drug paraphernalia.
