Engagement Ring Tossed In Bay During Argument

OCEAN CITY — A Pennsylvania man was arrested on assault and other charges last weekend after allegedly attacking his fiancé and throwing her $4,000 engagement ring into the bay from a hotel balcony.

Around 12:10 a.m. last Saturday, Ocean City Police Department (OCPD) officers responded to a hotel at 45th Street for a reported domestic assault.

OCPD officers arrived and met with the female victim, who told police she had been out at a restaurant with her fiancé, Michael Christoffers, 37, of New Wales, Pa., and she had become annoyed when he allegedly left her alone at the bar and was socializing with others in the establishment. The victim told police the couple argued at the bar and then returned to their hotel room, where the argument continued.

The victim reportedly told police after the argument she and Christoffers took a nap, each in separate beds in the hotel room. According to police reports, the victim told investigators Christoffers at some point took the covers off her and threw her onto the floor. The victim told police Christoffers then allegedly began to choke her with both hands.

Sometimes I am sad because I am single. Then, I read about incidents like this and realize I am once again happy to be single. Too much drama today...

Intoxicated and passed out. Woke up to her big rock being gone and called police. Now he faces attempted murder and 1st degree assault. He will lose his job, 25k in lawyers fees and might go to prison. She will not be able to drop charges if they make up. All because of booze.

3:43 I think you glazed over the whole choking her part. I'd say booze is the least of the issues there.

Won't be long before Maryland can shift this to Weed and their new tax revenue starts. Should anyone find the ring, donate it to Peter Franchot.

They didn't mention anything about CHOKE MARKS on her. Did she go to the hospital?? Being choke and having your head slammed on the floor should create some concern to GO TO THE HOSPITAL. I SAY SHE A FREAKING POS LYING BITCH.

I noticed the same thing. There was no mention of any evidence, only he said she said.

How dumb can a female be to buy her own engagement ring?!!!

If $4000 is equal to three to four months of salary (the rough estimate of spending on engagement rings that retailers of such things would have men believe), she's working for peanuts.

Why would she buy her own engagement ring if she knew he was a loser

A woman who buys her own engagement ring isnt really engaged. She just has a lot of money and desperately wants to be engaged to the guy who is currently boneing her.

Sounds like he's getting off pretty easy. Cheaper than buying her a house 5 years from now.
