Threesome Break-up Turns Ugly

(Portsmouth, Ohio) It turns out three is definitely not company. A Scioto Trail man had double trouble with two women he told police he allowed to live with him. Portsmouth Police officers responded to a disturbance call at a Scioto Trail home around 8:30 am on Wednesday. A second call came in from a woman at the residence to complain about a domestic incident.

Police generally don’t enjoy responding to domestics anyway, but this one was made extra interesting when a woman on the scene informed police the house should be quarantined for COVID-19.

When the officer arrived, the man living at the home told him he and the two women who lived there were all in a relationship. He informed police that there had been a disagreement between the trio and that they had all decided to break up.

The man was so fed up with the situation, he was willing to pay to get out of it. He told officers he offered each woman $955 to leave and that both signed a paper agreeing to the deal.

Something Extra

However, he said that he woke up the two women arguing, and when he tried to intervene they ladies turned things around on him. He claimed that they upped the price to get out and demanded an additional $550 to leave. When he declined to pay, he claimed one of the women began to hit herself in the face and threatened to file domestic violence charges against him. That’s when he said he called the police and walked out of the house.

The women told a slightly different story. They admitted they agreed to leave if he paid them $955. But they said he never paid the money. Further, when they asked for the cash, he wanted a little something extra for the deal. According to the woman, he asked for some “p***y.

The ladies weren’t happy about that and said they told him off and accused him of using people who’d had a hard life. At this point, the women say he became violent and grabbed one of them.

The women did not want to file a police report. However, an officer took pictures in case she changed her mind. Officers noted no bruising or wounds on either woman.
