An Albany woman was accused of crashing a Sudanese wedding party early Sunday and splashing people with a glass bottle full of acid, injuring six people, authorities said.
Just like being back home in Sudan, ain't it? |
Or Pakistan. Or Mauritania. Or ... | Two firefighters were injured when their latex gloves melted as they tried to treat the others splashed with the substance. ``Acid thrown in someone's face is pretty unique,'' said firefighter Darren Marino. ``You gotta be pretty twisted. It was pretty nasty.''
Yes, pretty twisted, or a member of a certain religious/cultural background ... |
It's only pretty unique in the civilized world. Adherents of the Religion of Peace™ have a thing for melting each other. | Marino said the firefighters thought they were answering a call for a hot-water burn and didn't realize they were dealing with acid until they reached the hospital and their fingers started burning. Police were investigating why the woman, who was among the injured, attacked the group.
"Legume! Bring me the Book of Common Wisdom!" | Rihab Hagelkhider, 39, allegedly targeted Hayfa Hussein, 29, who suffered burns on her face and body, police said. ``It appears there was some type of problem between them,'' said police Lt. Pete Frisoni.
"I'll teach you, you brazen hussy!" |
"My honor and dignity demand that I hideously disfigure you!" | Hagelkhider was charged with assault and reckless endangerment. Police have not yet identified the acid.
Your choices are a) glacial acetic acid b) sulfuric acid c) blood from a critter from Alien. | The party of Sudanese immigrants and others was held at the Friendship House, which is affiliated with the Friendship Baptist Church. Marino said there was a language barrier at first. ``I jumped out of the rig and I didn't understand anything. But I understand pain.'' All victims were treated at local hospitals and released. |
