Man Allegedly Chokes Fiancee For Trash-Talking NASCAR

An argument over NASCAR and IndyCar has led to domestic battery charges for a man in Franklin, Indiana.

David Wilson, 57, was arrested Sunday after he allegedly choked his fiancée during an Indianapolis 500 viewing party, TheIndyChannel.com reports.

The victim told officers she and the suspect had been drinking all day.

Wilson told police he was making dinner in the kitchen when he heard his fiancée and another person "talking trash about NASCAR" in the living room.

Wilson allegedly came into the room and “started rambling on about NASCAR being better than IndyCar,” according to the incident report. Then he choked her, according to the Indianapolis Star.

When the victim tried to call 911, Wilson allegedly shouted, “Who are you calling?” and took the phone from her. He told the dispatcher, “Everything is fine here,” and hung up, according to the police report.

Wilson was arrested and charged with domestic battery and strangulation, according to WAVE.
