A Vero Beach domestic violence arrest was recorded after a woman asked her 23-year-old boyfriend to go out somewhere for food.

According to the arrest report made on Monday, the woman asked her boyfriend to go somewhere for food because she was hungry. Her boyfriend, a 23-year-old who had been with her for a year, refused to go because he was tired after his workday. When the woman offered him cash to go on a food run, the man allegedly stated, “Only if you pleasure me, I will.”

Unfortunately, this exchange turned to violence when the woman turned down the offer. The man became violent and demanded that she leave the house. As she gathered her belongings, the man pushed her down the stairs and out the door of their apartment. When police were called to the scene, they reported that the man became violent when talking to officers. He was flailing his arms angrily at police officers, who soon restrained him and loaded him into their police cruiser.

The man was taken to the police station and booked on a misdemeanor domestic violence charge as well as resisting arrest without violence. He was released the next day after posting a bond of $1,500.
