Chef Pleads Guilty in 'Tomato' Stabbing
TROY, N.Y (AP) - A chef pleaded guilty Wednesday to stabbing a waiter who chastised him for using a rotten tomato in his cooking. Mohammed Uddin, 43, will be sentenced to one year in county jail May 17.
He pleaded guilty to attempted second-degree assault in the Jan. 4 stabbing of 18-year-old Minh Vu.
After noticing Uddin was cooking with a rotten tomato, Vu went to tell the manager "because Mohammed didn't care what I told him," Vu said in a statement. Vu told police he was only trying to make sure diners got fresh food.
When he returned to the kitchen, Vu said Uddin came up behind him and hit him in the head with a spoon.
"I turned around and Mohammed had a kitchen knife in his hand," Vu said in his statement.
Seconds later, he said, Uddin lunged at him with the 12-inch knife.
Vu has recovered from his injuries.
Did the assailant vow to ketchup with the victim later?
On the other hand, maybe the assailant was sauced when he did it.
My first thought: I wonder what Cav would have said about this.
I hope he would have liked the story.
good ones, by the way, blacksmith. :wink:
Thank you. I heard he was initially charged with marinara in the first degree.
Punishable by death, apparently.
You know, when I first read this, I got a mental image of some mad chef stabbing someone with a tomato.
No, no, no. that's another thread of mine. :wink:
