A 60-year-old Florida man was taken into custody after the police said he struck his roommate with a grocery bag during a dispute over space in an Uber.
The Uber driver reportedly told police that the roommate had not touched or hit the other man during the incident. Instead, he said he watched the man use a Walmart bag containing what appeared to be a tub of ice cream to strike his roommate in the face. The driver reported that he believed the accused man was the aggressor in the confrontation.
The dispute took place outside a Walmart in Ocala where the two men had gone shopping for groceries and other supplies for the group home where they live. Their purchases included several large plants, which left less room for the passengers and their belongings in the vehicle.
