A Thanksgiving argument between siblings ended when a 27-year-old woman stabbed her half-brother in the neck with a "large serving fork," according to Annapolis Police.
Officers responded to the 1100 block of Madison Street on Thursday around 9:30 p.m. where they found a 23-year-old man bleeding with two small puncture wounds on the left side of his neck.
Police said the man told them that his half-sister Shenika Allsup, of Annapolis, stabbed him after an argument escalated.
Allsup was arrested and charged with first-degree assault, second-degree assault and reckless endangerment. She is being held at the Jennifer Road Detention Center on $1 million bond.
Emergency personnel transported her brother to Anne Arundel Medical Center with non life-threatening injuries.

"two small puncture wounds on the left side of his neck." How can he be sure it wasn't a vampire?

Consider this evidence that it is high time to ban forks in Maryland. These dangerous weapons are easily concealed and can be found in practically every household in the state. Fork violence is at an all time high resulting in neck punctures and obesity throughout our great state and should no longer be tolerated.

Funny, OG--but remember, this wasn't your average dinner fork. It was one of those carving forks with two long tines, which--strategically placed--could do serious damage. I think we should ban people who do willful injury to others . . . oh, wait, aren't we supposed to have *laws* that do that???
