In other words, the dude punched his brother over a $4 laxative.
According to WPXI, a 47-year-old Union Township man was charged with simple assault and harassment this morning after he punched his 58-year-old brother several times in the face because he had eaten three Big Macs from a late night McDonald’s run and didn’t save one for him.
Police said Thomas Veres also knocked over furniture and appliances and threw other food around the house during a rage-filled tantrum that took place just before he jacked his brother Matthew in the face.
One neighbor said she saw Matthew hitching a ride Tuesday night to Monongahela, a nearby town that is apparently prominent enough to house a McDonald’s. A few hours later, Matthew knocked on her door and asked if her husband wanted a Big Mac because he got three of them.
“I said, ‘Well, it’s kind of late and he’s eating some popcorn right now, but thanks for asking,'” Angela Bekavac said.
Shortly afterward, Thomas returned home to find that Matthew had a change of heart and devoured all three Big Macs. That’s when all hell broke loose, almost as much hell as Matthew surely endured on the toilet this morning.
