This Probably Isn't the Way to Win Argument Over Kitchen Cleanliness

An argument apparently ‘spuddered’ out of control at a Russett Road residence this week when one roommate tossed a pot of hot potatoes at the other.

The pair’s mash-up occurred around 11:30 p.m. July 5 and was about cleanliness of the kitchen, according to a Glastonbury police statement.

“While on (the) scene it was learned (that) Andre Sumpter threw a pot of hot potatoes at his roommate during an argument about keeping the kitchen clean,” according to police.

Sumpter, 56, of 88 Russett Rd., was arraigned July 6 in state Superior Court in Manchester on a disorderly conduct charge and is scheduled to return to court Aug. 21, according to the Connecticut Judicial Branch website.
