DV: Woman attacks man with toilet seat

FT. PIERCE. FL -- Police arrested an 18-year-old woman after they say she hit a man over the head with a toilet seat after finding him smoking crack cocaine in the bathroom.

Kimberlee Cole told police she found Joel Goldsmith smoking cocaine in their bathroom Sunday night. The two argued and Goldsmith, 24, refused to give up the drugs, according to a police affadavit.

According to the report, Cole said that when Goldsmith went to put another "rock" into his crack pipe, he dropped the cocaine and Cole turned on the water in the shower to wash away the drug. The two continued arguing, she said, and when Goldsmith refused to stop smoking the drugs, Cole hit him with the toilet seat.

Police arrived after a roommate heard the arguing and called 9-1-1. Police found a broken toilet seat in the master bedroom bathroom and blood on the walls, toilet and floor. A small amount of cocaine turned up in the shower.

Goldsmith was booked into the St. Lucie County jail on a cocaine possession charge. He was released after posting $5,000 bond. Cole, who was released without bond, faces a battery charge.
