Florida man punches girl friend for changing channel during Super Bowl

Thomas White, who has a previous felony conviction for battery on a pregnant victim, was charged with felony battery for intentionally hitting her against her will and leaving great bodily harm.

Alachua County Sheriff deputies found blood droplets on the ground and on the wall as well as the victim with cuts on her face and chin, a bloody nose and a swollen wrist and hand.

White told police that he was angered by the victim running her mouth, and he was reacting in self-defense after his girlfriend allegedly slapped him and swung at him.
