Woman Charged For Chucking Cupcakes At Her Husband During A Heated Domestic Dispute

So people are getting arrested for throwing cupcakes these days:

A woman who allegedly pelted her husband with cupcakes was charged with domestic battery Saturday after he called the cops on her. Dawn Montesdeoca, 60, is accused of throwing the party-sized treats at her husband Arturo, 56, and hitting him during an argument at his home on the 4700 block of South Western.

When police arrived, Arturo Montesdeoca’s head and shirt were smeared in cupcake icing, and he told officers he was “in fear” and wanted his wife arrested, according to a police report. She used “a very aggressive tone,” with the cops and admitted the cupcake assault, the report said. Judge Adam D. Bourgeois set her bail at $10,000 during a brief court hearing Sunday morning.

In the heat of a domestic dispute, a Chicago woman pelted her husband with cupcakes before police arrived to arrest her Saturday night, authorities said. The sweet evidence of her crime was visible on her husband’s head and shirt when officers responded to the home in the Brighton Park neighborhood on the Southwest Side, according to a police report.

On Sunday morning, Cook County Circuit Judge Adam D. Bourgeois Jr. ordered electronic monitoring for the woman and a $10,000 bond. She is charged with a misdemeanor count of domestic battery. The fight started with a verbal quarrel about 7:45 p.m. at the home in the 4700 block of South Western Avenue, according to a police report, but escalated until the woman started hitting her husband over the head.

After that, she reached for the box of desserts and directed a fusillade of snack cakes at his head and body, her husband told police. Several of the confections apparently hit their mark, as the man’s head and shirt were smudged with icing when officers arrived, according to a police report. He told officers he feared for his safety, and she was verbally aggressive with officers, the report states.

Police said she admitted hurling the treats at her husband. Records indicate that the alleged victim himself has been arrested three times since 2003 on domestic battery or battery charges. Charges in all three cases were later dropped. As he left home Sunday, the alleged victim of the cupcake assault declined to comment.
