Cops: Man who didn't like sandwich attacks fiancehttp://www.philly.com/phi...dwich_attacks_fiance.htmlFeeding picky eaters can be a pain.
Just ask Lyndel Toppin's fiancée, whose middle finger was almost chopped off when Toppin allegedly attacked her with a kitchen knife, according to Upper Darby police.
The reason for the assault, cops say, was a poorly made meatball sandwich. Specifically, the cheese placement was all wrong, which infuriated Toppin. "That was the catalyst," police Superintendent Michael Chitwood said.
The 44-year-old woman, whom cops did not identify, was preparing dinner last week in her Kingston Road home when Toppin "became enraged due to the victim not placing cheese on his hoagie roll correctly," according to the arrest affidavit.

Also, instead of chomping on the meatball sub that she'd made him, Toppin wrapped his teeth around his girlfriend's left wrist and refused to let go, the criminal complaint says.

He was being held yesterday at the George W. Hill Correctional Facility, awaiting a preliminary hearing.
The big cheese at the prison had a word to say about Toppin yesterday.
"Wait until he gets a load of the prison food," Superintendent John Reilly Jr. said.
