When hitting someone with a Crock Pot has repercussions

In New Orleans in September 33-year-old Teita Vaughn and her boyfriend, identified as 43-year-old Antonio Carr, got into an argument that turned physical. Carr grabbed a crock pot and hit Vaughn on the leg multiple times before running from the home. Vaughn was brought to the hospital, where doctors diagnosed her with a fractured left ankle. No word on whether or not there was any food in the Crock Pot at the time of the assault. According to police, officers were again called to Vaughn's home on Oct. 10 and found her unresponsive. EMTs attempted to resuscitate Vaughn, but were unable to do so. She was pronounced dead on scene. The next day, Orleans Parish Coroner Dr. Jeffrey Rouse conducted an autopsy and determined that Vaughn died as a result of a blood clot stemming from the ankle fracture. On Feb. 25, 2015, witnesses gave their accounts of what happened in the September incident, and they matched the original account. Based on this information, Rouse re-classified Vaughn's death as a homicide. Detective Travis Ward was able to secure an arrest warrant for Carr for manslaughter. Carr is now on the run. From WVUE.
