Man accused of blinding wife with carrot

MONROE, Conn. (AP) - A 46-year-old man is accused of assaulting his wife with a carrot, causing her to lose sight in one eye. Roderick Vecsey is charged with second-degree assault and disorderly conduct.

Pamela Vecsey, 46, underwent six hours of surgery after being hit in the left eye with the vegetable Saturday night, but doctors were not able to restore her vision, prosecutor Stephanie Damiani said.

The couple was arguing when Roderick Vecsey tossed the carrot, Damiani said.

Roderick Vecsey told Judge Patrick Carroll that it was a terrible accident, and was advised to remain silent.

The judge set a hearing for Thursday. Vecsey is currently free after posting $500 bond.

There is nothing appropriate to say about what happened. He is an idiot and she is as well for staying with him. She is blind and he is charged with second-degree assault and disorderly conduct. That is shouldn't be much of a fine should it? I bet it will be a good bet that her divorce lawyer will use this.

I suppose she should be grateful that he didn't throw the knife he was cutting the carrots with.

Not a lot of interest along the AP wire.
