An Arlington man was arrested for… aww hell, we’ll just let the police department explain this one:
MALICIOUS WOUNDING, 03/23/13, 3100 block of N. 17th Street. At 5:30 am on March 23, a male subject assaulted his roommate after waking up to discover his roommate had drawn male genitalia on his face with permanent marker. The victim sustained extensive injuries to his face and was taken to Virginia Hospital Center by another roommate. The victim wished to press charges and called the police approximately an hour and half after the incident. James Denham Watson, 31, of Arlington, VA, was arrested and charged with malicious wounding. He was held without bond.
And just think: Watson will have to tell future employers just why he was charged with malicious wounding. Do yourself a favor and head over to ARLnow for a picture of Watson, permanent marker-face penis and everything.
