Do you have intense arguments with people you hardly know on Facebook? If you did, would you run up on them at a gas station and assault them in real life?

That's what happened this weekend, according to a police report. A woman was sitting in the passenger seat of her car at a South Seattle gas station on Saturday evening when another woman pulled up alongside and got out," armed with a large kitchen knife with a black handle, as well as pepper spray," reports Seattle officer Eric Beseller in a police report released today. The suspect allegedly accosted the victim, who also "armed herself with pepper spray."

After the victim discharged her own pepper spray in self-defense, the alleged attacker fled. The victim called 911 to summon officers, the report says.

Questioned by police, she explained the situation: "The whole altercation stemmed from an argument the two of them have had for several months on Facebook," Beseller's report says. "Furthermore, they hardly knew each other, and much of the animosity was the work of others. Unsure of what had started the feud, she could only recall that there have been other incidents requiring police involvement, with all those matters happening in Tukwila and Burien."

Officer Beseller provided the victim with his business card and a domestic violence pamphlet.
