Women Fight Over 72-Year-Old Man

(March 23) - A 72-year-old man is at the center of a battle between two women who both say they were dating him in Dayton, Ohio.

Edith Mitchell, 78, told WHIO she was sitting in car with her beau of two years on Wednesday when a 73-year-old woman who claimed to be dating the same man came up to the car.

"She came up and grabbed me out and said 'that's my man,'" Mitchell alleged. "She said, 'Hey [expletive], you with my man, get out of that car.'"

According to WHIO, Dayton police reports say the woman started striking Mitchell in the face with her fists. Mitchell said she went into her home and got her gun, but that the other woman took it from her and pulled the trigger, misfiring.

In the police reports, the other woman claims it was Mitchell who did the misfiring.

"I'm too old for this, that's all I can say," Mitchell told WHIO.
