DELTONA, Fla. -- A 45-year-old man from Volusia County was arrested Monday after he choked his wife during an argument over friend chicken leftovers, deputies said.
Desmond Leon Brownlee, of Deltona, was arrested and charged with domestic battery by strangulation and tampering with a witness.
It started when deputies arrived to a home on Fayetteville Avenue around 3 a.m. Monday. A deputy reported to hear a female voice screaming from inside the residence, stating: "Please, 911, please."
The deputy also reported to hear a male voice coming from inside the same window, stating: "Shhh, what do you want, us both to go to jail?"
The deputy then met Shey Alamo and Brownlee at the front door of the residence.
Alamo stated that she got into a verbal argument with Brownlee over not having enough fried chicken leftovers and the care of her mother.
Alamo stated the argument escalated, and Brownlee started to push her toward their bedroom. Alamo said Brownlee then "shoved" her onto the bed, according to the report.
Alamo also told deputies that Brownlee struck her in the face multiple times and choked her.
Alamo was able to break free from Brownlee to call 911, the report states.
The couple has been married four years, deputies said. Their child was sleeping in her bedroom on the opposite side of the house during the incident, the report states.
