(Newser) – This may very well be the weirdest thing you’ll read all day: Dallas police are on the hunt for a man who is accused of attacking a woman with a frozen armadillo. The Sept. 29 altercation occurred in the parking lot of an apartment complex, where the 57-year-old was buying the carcass from the suspect so that she could eat it. An argument over the price led to the man allegedly throwing the dead animal at the woman—not once, but twice, MyFox Austin reports. She was reportedly bruised when it struck her in the leg and chest, and the man could face assault charges if located. (Click to read another weird crime, involving ... George Bush?)

Y'know, there are several word constructions in English that are among the least likely to be employed. "Hey mister ... there's a frog on your face."   is one ... "He hit me with a frozen armadillo." must SURELY be another ...
