I once lost a tooth to a sandwich while chewing it, and the sandwich was pretty much stationary. I’m surprised this cop still has a face, tbh.

Does it matter? In my city the cops fired tear gas canisters at protesters, calling it “less- than lethal force” but when protesters picked them up and threw them back, they got charged with Assault With a Deadly Weapon.

This sounds like a question for Mythbusters

The question isn’t whether a flung sandwich can cause bodily harm. It’s whether that flung sandwich did cause bodily harm. They do make that clear in the article. The title simply doesn’t reflect that.

Also, like they talked about in the article, the evidence didn’t match the officer’s testimony. He said that the sandwich exploded all over him and got mustard everywhere. But pictures of the sandwich after it landed showed the wrapper still fully covering the sandwich.

The guy who threw the sandwich probably committed some sort of minor crime, but it wasn’t the one he was charged with, and it’s hard to believe the prosecution when their star witness seems to be lying his ass off.
