Last week Mala told us that some experts think that Nintendo’s Wii could be dangerous for your health. Also dangerous for one’s health is domestic violence, and the Wii was at the center of at least one heated incident in which two people were arrested. GameTab reports

Blom and his 24 year-old girlfriend, Randi Young, were both arrested for misdemeanor “domestic-related” assault charges. An altercation broke out over Christmas presents. Police arrived at the Blom residence on Christmas Day to discover the couple bruised and battered.

“Heath Blom wanted a remote-controlled airplane for Christmas, and not the Wii,” said Sgt. Kuffer Kaltenborn. Blom’s grandmother gave him a Nintendo Wii, which he scoffed at, causing his girlfriend to call him names “for not liking the Wii.”

According to Young, “He [Heath Blom] said he hated it. It hurt her [his grandmother's] feelings… When he didn’t get the plane, he got really upset. He acted like a 10-year-old kid.”

A fight ensued with Blom supposedly dragging Young down two flights of stairs — by her hair. Blom claims Young punched him in the eye three times.

Turns out it wasn’t Wii’s fault. The guy was just an ungrateful bastard, and violent to boot.
