Last Update: 12/15/2008 5:10 pm

PORT ST. LUCIE, Fla. (AP) -- Police say a Port St. Lucie man was arrested for throwing a sandwich at his girlfriend, the second food attack that sent a man to jail in about a month.

According to a police report released Monday, 20-year-old Matthew Rubin threw the sandwich at his girlfriend's face during an argument. Rubin then hit the top of her head with his first before taking off.

Rubin admitted to throwing the food but not hitting her. He was arrested Friday and faces a battery charge.

Last month, another man was arrested on a battery charge for hitting his girlfriend with a sandwich, knocking her glasses off and nearly causing a traffic crash.

Police reports did not what type of sandwich was used in either attack.
