ORLANDO, Fla. - A Florida man found himself behind bars after he allegedly hurled a bottle of Hennessy at another man during an argument over the victim's sister.
Jonathan Trovato, 25, was arrested and charged with aggravated battery with a deadly weapon after the incident that unfolded at a home in Orlando last Friday night, according to an arrest affidavit from the Orlando Police Department.
A man was on the phone with his little sister when Trovato said she "should get beat up," the affidavit said. The man told Trovato to stop talking like that about his sister, and that's when Trovato allegedly grabbed a bottle of Hennessy and threw it at him. Police said the bottle shattered after hitting the man in the face.
