A Florida woman reportedly got violent after her husband complained about her selections of McDonald’s and Taco Bell for his birthday dinner.
Esha Persad, 34, and her husband of five years, Shiva Persad, were having a birthday dinner at their St. Petersburg home when a dispute broke out soon before 12:30 a.m. He informed her that Taco Bell and McDonald’s were not up to standard.
“The defendant and the victim were arguing about the defendant getting the victim Taco Bell and McDonald’s for his birthday,” according to the indictment. “The defendant then threw a soft shell taco at the victim, which struck the victim on the right side of the face.”
When the cops arrived, the evidence was visible.
The affidavit states, “The burrito was still on the victim’s face.”
Shiva Persad informed police that he had not been hurt.
After being read her Miranda rights, Esha Persad allegedly stated that she threw the burrito at her husband after he threw a bag at her. Shiva Persad denied doing this, according to the affidavit.
Police arrested Esha Persad on a battery charge and transported her to Pinellas County Jail, where she was released on her recognizance.
Esha Persad is a local dentist who, according to her website, “underwent dental trauma during her childhood.”
According to the website, she and her husband “wholeheartedly embrace the coastal lifestyle” of Florida, and they “relish in the tranquillity of beach days and delight in activities such as snorkeling and kayaking, all while savoring our community’s different culinary offerings.”
