Talk about getting in the Christmas Spirit.....

This Black Friday saw a LOT of disgusting, un-Christmas-like violence at stores.  But we almost EXPECT that at places like Walmart.  We don't expect it to happen when middle-aged women are shopping for arts-and-crafts.

--But that's exactly what happened on Sunday afternoon in Plantsville, Connecticut.

--55-year-old Ruth Wagner of Plantsville was at a craft fair, shopping for Christmas ornaments.  As she was browsing, a vendor accused her of stealing some jewelry.

--They started yelling at each other . . . Ruth picked up a Christmas ornament made out of a seashell . . . and STABBED the vendor with it.

--She got him in the forearm. A piece of the ornament broke off inside his arm . . . and he ended up needing surgery to have it removed.

 --Ruth was arrested and charged with SEVERAL felonies, including first-degree robbery, second-degree assault, first-degree reckless endangerment, sixth-degree larceny, and second-degree breach of peace.
