Man Allegedly Knifes Brother Over Fast-Food Brownie: Erik Cain Arrested

I'm lovin' it! And I'm not sharin' it.

A Pennsylvania man was arrested on Wednesday night after he allegedly stabbed his brother several times over a McDonald's brownie, The Times-Tribune reported.

Cops said that Erik "Eggs" Cain and his brother Gene Cain got into an argument when Gene cut the treat in half. The share tactic was apparently enough to enrage Erik, because he picked up three steak knives and allegedly slashed and stabbed Gene in the left forearm, left shoulder and right wrist.

"[Gene] thought his brother was going to kill him," so he responded by throwing a television at Erik, police Sgt. Joseph Laguzzi wrote in a report obtained by the newspaper.

Erik fled, but was later collared and charged with aggravated assault, reckless endangerment, harassment and disorderly conduct.

But it wasn't Erik's first run-in with cops. At the time of the alleged stabbing incident, Erik had been out on bail after being charged with slashing his girlfriend last month, The Associated Press reported.

Editor's Note: This article incorrectly stated that Gene Cain had been arrested. We regret the error.

The dude wanted his fair share of the brownie. You know 54% to 46% for his brother. Fair is fair... btw, someone should tell that guy that knives are for cutting food, not people. I don't think he grasps the concept...

Are we sure these weren't marijuana Brownies because obviously this guy wasn't thinking straight!

This case is similar to the Biblical time when Cain killed his brother Abel for jealousy. Also, those brothers have the same last name as Cain.

This is hilarious. Plus he was out on bail for slashing his girlfriend. That guy is clearly on some drugs.
