Sure some people can be overprotective of their beer, but a wife in western Pennsylvania allegedly took her beer loyalty to extremes when her husband polished off her last one. She is accused of slashing her husband with scissors and biting him after she awoke to find he had downed her last beer.

TribLive.com reports that Tracey Lee Giffin, 45, of Fayette County, Pa., is accused of slashing a 59-year-old man identified in media reports as her husband. He had various cuts on his neck, chest and stomach, police said.

She is charged with aggravated assault, simple assault, reckless endangerment and harassment in the incident from earlier this week.

The domestic incident erupted when the woman awoke to find her husband had downed her last beer, according to KDKA-TV. This, after a day of drinking by the couple.

An argument over the vanished beer allegedly turned violent when Giffin grabbed a pair of scissors and began slashing her husband and biting his arms.

Police confirm that the victim had teeth marks on his arms and left thumb.

Meanwhile, KDKA reports that this isn't Giffin's only violent outburst over a food item. The station reports that she was involved in a 2013 Christmas Eve fight in Washington County over barbecue sauce that landed she and a different man in jail. More details are here.
