Old US woman arrested for not watering her lawn... Could only happen in America some say? Hello? Woman jailed for not watering her lawn. A 70-year-old US woman has been left bruised and bloody after an unexpected clash with police who came to arrest her because her lawn was dry and brown. Trouble flared when Utah pensioner Betty Perry, 70, refused to give her name to an officer trying to caution her for not watering her lawn. She says the officer hit her with handcuffs, cutting her nose, although police insist she slipped and fell. Ms Perry said she was "distraught" after the incident. She denied that she was resisting arrest, maintaining that she turned to go inside to call her son to fix the confusing dispute. "I tried to sit down and get away from him," she told Utah newspaper the Daily Herald. "I don't know what he's doing. I said: 'What are you doing?' And he hit me with those handcuffs in my face," she said. "He's just trying to cover his tracks, as far as I'm concerned." A 70 year old woman beaten up by the Police for not watering her lawn, only in the land of the free, the home of the brave. Contributor's Note Old woman arrested for not watering her lawn - only in America.
