Woman 'beat up' husband because he refused to have sex with her

A woman has been arrested after allegedly beating up her husband with nunchucks after he refused to come to bed with her.

Sondra Earle-Kelly, 51, was charged with aggravated domestic violence after police found her husband with blood 'all over him' and spattered up the walls of their home in Charlotte, South Carolina.

The victim was watching television in the living room on Sunday evening when Earle-Kelly 'came in and asked him to go to bed with her', according to a police report.

Earle-Kelly, who according to the Charlotte Observer had been taking Xanax that night, started throwing ceramic figurines at her husband in a furious rage, the victim told police.

She 'kept coming at him, assaulting him with whatever she could pick up', he added.

Earle-Kelly allegedly then picked up a pair of nunchucks and started hitting her husband in the face and head.

When police arrived, she said she did not know why the apartment was covered in blood or how her husband had suffered his injuries.

The victim, who police say appeared to have defensive wounds on his arms, refused to be taken to hospital.
