Heads Up

When Terry Nowakowski, 20, broke down the door of his Zephyrhills, Fla. home to confront his girlfriend during a heated argument, Chelsea Harrison grabbed the nearest thing she could find to defend herself: a mounted deer head.

The Pasco County Sheriff’s Office reported she “began striking him in the face and body with the ends of the antlers until she lost her grip, dropping it to the floor.”

She was charged with domestic battery.

Apparently, the buck stopped there.

Alligator heads aren’t regularly used as weapons except by live alligators. But it did occur when the ex-girlfriend of Arkansas State Sen. Jeremy Hutchinson (R) was charged with third-degree domestic battery after allegedly striking him in the head with a preserved (mounted) alligator head during a domestic dispute.

Julie McGee, 39, of Little Rock, was booked into the Pulaski County Jail after Hutchinson called police to his home late one night.
