Girlfriend smashes beer mug on boyfriends face

A woman who allegedly struck her boyfriend in the face with a beer mug then left the motel room covered in blood.

Investigators became concerned about the couple's welfare Wednesday afternoon after a maid at the Rand Ave. Motel found the walls and mattress splattered with blood and blood-soaked bedding tossed in the dumpster. Cynthia Markham had struck him the face with the mug, slicing him from his cheek to his chin.

"It was probably about a good three- to four-inch gash, but I couldn't really tell because they had Superglued the bandages to his face," Legros said.
