I went back and forth about whether or not I should bother posting this, but then it occurred to me that it’ll probably be the only time I’d ever be able to use this song for something. Carin will be so happy!
A 60-year-old man was charged after allegedly using a frozen fish as a weapon during an altercation at a Warren fish counter, according to officials.
The incident took place on April 2, at Desi Fruit Market on Nine Mile in Warren. Around 7:15 p.m., police say the suspect, MD Jobul Hussain, became angry with a store clerk after being told the fish counter closed at 7 p.m. due to Ramadan.
“The suspect then allegedly assaulted the clerk on the head with a four-pound frozen hilsa fish,” Macomb County Prosecutor Peter Lucido said in a news release. “The hilsa fish is a kind of herring.”
Contrary to what’s written here, the victim was not on the toilet when he was hit. He was, however, transported to a local hospital for a looking over afterwards.
And I’ll leave you with this, because I think it’s a reminder we could all use sometimes.
“I never thought I’d have to say this, but if you assault someone with a fish in our county you will be prosecuted,” Lucido said. “A frozen fish is dangerous if you use it to hit someone on the head.”
