Keep your tongue where it belongs

The longer I live in this state, the more I wonder about what's in the water. I was going to say that it could have been worse (you know what I mean, Lorena), but "more intimate" wouldn't have been worse than this...this could be life-threatening.

Woman Charged With Biting Off Man's Tongue


CELINA, Ohio (AP) - Police accused a northwest Ohio woman of biting off a man's tongue. Chad Ringo, 29, remained in intensive care Monday at St. Rita's Medical Center in Lima after unsuccessful attempts to reattach about 30 percent of his tongue, Celina police said.

A hospital spokeswoman said he was in fair condition.

Police charged Emily Mescher, 25, with felonious assault after Ringo was injured Friday night. She was freed on $10,000 bail following a hearing Monday in Celina Municipal Court.

Police said Mescher and Ringo had been involved in a relationship.

Note the past tense.
