An armed attacker, who attempted to rape a woman inside her Tewksbury, Mass., hotel room, ended up calling an ambulance for himself after his victim hit him in the face with a frying pan.

Frank Harrison, 46, entered a woman’s hotel room at 5:30 a.m. on Sept. 29, armed with a knife and ready to attack. But his victim fought back as he attempted to sexually assault her. The woman grabbed a frying pan inside the hotel room and wacked him across the face with it.

Harrison quickly fled the room and called 911 because of his injuries. Police arrived to find him covered in his own blood with several cuts on his head and face. The mug shot shows massive bumps on Harrison’s head.

Harrison was charged with kidnapping, armed assault with intent to rape, battery and indecent battery

Well, I certainly hope they nail him on that “indecent battery” charge.

[headsonpikes]

“Hope he suffers brain damage.”

Improbable...

Before we leap to conclusions, let me assure you that this is, statistically, an outlier.

People who keep frying pans in their house are much more likely to be injured by their own frying pans than they are to injure someone else.

[Cicero]

Unless it was a very strangely shaped frying pan, I’d say she hit him at least four times: forehead, forehead, cheek, and chin.

[SandRat]

I’d bet it’s a very strangely shaped frying pan now.

[JimRed]

That must be some hotel! I’ve stayed in some nice ones and some not-so-nice ones, but none of them had a frying pan!

[JimRed]

I’m not kidding, but doesn’t the guy have a keen resemblance to the guy living in the WH?

Obama's uncle?

[stellaluna]

I’ve stayed at extended stay hotels and they have full kitchens including utensils. On one vacation my husband went to the grocery store and I made breakfast the whole week.

What was the capacity of the frying pan? If it was over 1 quart, it may be regulated. If it was a pressure cooker, Homeland Security would be investigating. I would rather go from the frying pan into to fire-fight.

[Moonman62]

Now Biden is going to tell everybody to get a frying pan for self defense.

[Red Badger]

Out of thge frying pan into the hoosegow.........

[kevkrom]

Tangled was the first thing I thought of when I read the headline.

[tumblindice]

And then she combed her hair with a wagon wheel.

I’m not kidding, but doesn’t the guy have a keen resemblance to the guy living in the WH?

This guys ears are too small to be any relation.

[Mr. Lucky]

OK, that’s pretty funny.

[heartwood]

A rape gone right...

[Ruy Dias de Bivar]

Don’t see GRISWOLD. Don’t see WAGNER.

Must have used one of those old unmarked Lodge skillets.

[MHGinTN]

Cooking ... up meth?

[Dixie Yooper]

The hotel rooms I’ve stayed in never have frying pans...

[skimbell]

If barack obama was a rapist this is....
