Grandma De-Escalates Fight Between Couple By Pepper Spraying Them

PLANO, Texas (CBSDFW.COM) - Fed up with an escalating fight between her daughter and her daughter's boyfriend, a grandmother took matters into her own hands, pepper spraying the couple.

Unfortunately, the drama had unfolded inside the grandmother's SUV, with two of her grandchildren in tow in front of the Plano Police substation at 7501 Independence Pkwy.

All five people — grandma, daughter, boyfriend and two children — went to the hospital but none were seriously hurt.

The boyfriend, 30-year-old Joshua Lessig, was arrested before transport and charged with assault family violence.
