Fight over fried chicken turns fatal in W. Houston

http://www.sfgate.com/news/houston-texas/houston/article/Fight-over-fried-chicken-turns-fatal-in-W-Houston-6602725.php

A roommates' fight over fried chicken turned deadly Friday night in a west Houston apartment, police said.

Houston police found a man later identified as Darwin Perez Gonzalez, 34, lying dead around 11:30 p.m. outside near the entrance to the Monte Carlo Apartment Homes on Lakewood Estates Drive.

Several witnesses saw the fight, which started between Gonzales and roommate Reinaldo Cardoso Rivera, 38, over the last piece of homemade fried chicken, a drumstick. They went outside to fight over the chicken, and that's when Rivera allegedly stabbed Gonzalez with a steak knife....

"There was a single drumstick in the pan," according to HPD Homicide Detective Fil Waters. "You can't script this stuff. It's someone getting killed over a piece of chicken. Pretty tragic."


There's a place called Houston in Florida? Who knew?
