PASADENA, Texas - Authorities say a Houston-area woman who was angry with her former common-law husband fried their pet goldfish and ate some of them.
Pasadena police say it's a civil matter and no charges will be filed. The seven goldfish were purchased together by the couple during happier times.
Police spokesman Vance Mitchell says the man reported that the woman took the goldfish from his apartment.
Mitchell says the two argued earlier about some jewellery the man had given her but took back. She wanted the jewellery returned.
Officers who were dispatched to the woman's home arrived to find four fried goldfish on a plate. The woman said she already ate the other three.
