Man Arrested for Attempting to Force an iPhone Down His Girlfriend's Throat

A New York attorney has been arrested for attempting to force an iPhone down his girlfriend's throat during a fight at their Upper East Side home, according to a New York Post report.

Brian Anscomb, 37, force-fed the gizmo to his 23-year-old gal pal in their York Avenue apartment early Saturday, bruising and cutting her mouth, court papers say. It wasn't his first phone flipout -- on July 10, he allegedly cracked her cellphone in half when she tried to call cops during a nasty squabble.

Anscomb punched her in the eye as she tried to flee, according to court documents. He was arrested Sunday and his lawyer, Steve Ross, says, "We deny all of the allegations."
