Police in Barrie, Ontario say that the 49-year-old woman threw hot coffee at her boyfriend’s face before slapping him, upon the discovery that he had been trying to cheat on her with a woman he thought he met on the internet.
An off-duty cop who was in the vicinity arrested the woman and called for assistance. The woman is currently awaiting a bail hearing.
Both parties refuse to speak to the press, but it’s clear that an odd lie between the couple lead to the altercation. Both of them had lied about their identities.
The two individuals are clearly outliers, as a study by dating website OKCupid last year revealed that the majority of people who do online dating tend to be honest about themselves as long as they were confident about themselves.
