DECATUR, Ga. — A Georgia man was arrested Monday after threatening to kill the mother of his child if she did not give him the new password to their Wi-Fi system, police said.
Decatur police said the man grabbed a bottle of Pedialyte the woman was feeding their child and poured it over her head as he threatened her life for internet access, the Herald & Review reported.
“(He) became upset with her that she would not tell him the password to the wifi and grabbed the bottle from her,” Officer Ryan Wicks said in his report. “He then dumped the bottle of water on her which she advised was insulting/provoking. He told her to stop playing games and threatened to kill her if she didn’t give him the wifi password.”
A family member at the apartment called police. The man was leaving the complex as officers arrived.
“He only repeatedly told officers there is nothing to talk about as he did not do anything,” Wicks said.
The man, who has not been identified, was arrested and charged with domestic battery, the Herald & Review reported. He was released on $1,000 bond. He is prohibited from contacting his ex-girlfriend while out on bail.
