Boynton Beach Man Beat Girlfriend Because He Didn't Like Her Stew: Report
NBC Miami ^ | Friday, May 11, 2012

Police said they arrested Timothy McTigue on Thursday

Boynton Beach Police arrested a man after he beat his girlfriend because he didn’t like her stew, The Palm Beach Post reported.

On Tuesday Timothy McTigue, 49, walked over to his 45-year-old girlfriend and told her the stew she was cooking looked like (expletive), police said. She pushed McTigue and said the word he used was not nice, and he in turn grabbed her by the hair and dragged her outside, the newspaper reported.

As she tried to call for help, McTigue threw her phone into a trash bin that had a fire going inside it, and his girlfriend said she burned her hands trying to recover it. McTigue also pounded her head into the ground and left her with a dark black eye, according to the Post.

Police arrested McTigue Thursday on charges of aggravated battery and tampering with a victim, and he is being held on $10,000 bond at the Palm Beach County Jail, according to jail records.

I would hope they aren’t still dating after that.

Well? Maybe this description was consistent with the smell?

As she tried to call for help, McTigue threw her phone into a trash bin that had a fire going inside it...

Must be one of those lovely neighborhoods with white picket fences, tidy flower gardens, and meticulously manicured lawns.

“McTigue threw her phone into a trash bin that had a fire going inside it”

Too bad McTigue didn’t throw McTigue into the fire. Because he certainly fits the description for trash.

What a punk.

Trash fire in drum? Must have been barbecuing.

Yes, and McTigue himself is probably lay minister at the neighborhood church, while his girlfriend is a part-time Avon Lady.

How much do you want to bet that both McTigue and his girlfriend sport numerous "colorful" tatoos on their forearms, lower backs, throats, and possibly even faces?

Regards,

If she can't make decent stew at 45 it's a hopeless situation.

I had an Italian girlfriend who couldn't boil spaghetti right, it was a close call, but I escaped!

Whoa, whoa, whoa. There’s still plenty of meat on that bone. Now you take this home, throw it in a pot, add some broth, a potato. Baby, you’ve got a stew going.

And the sad thing is that, if they aren’t already back together, it won’t be long...
