Be careful about surprising someone at inopportune moments.

A St. Paul woman who became frightened Wednesday morning when her boyfriend squeezed her too tightly while they kissed bit off part of his tongue, police said.

“I guess I bit down too hard,” the woman told officers, explaining that she has been victimized by men.

The woman, who is 43, was arrested for assault and could be charged today in Ramsey County, investigators said.

I find it odd that they arrested her if it was an accident, though.
