She might not go directly to jail, but a North Battleford, Sask., woman is in trouble with the law after a heated game of Monopoly.
It happened in the city early Wednesday morning, according to RCMP.
Police were called to a home at 3:44 a.m. CST on a complaint of a domestic incident.
A 43-year-old woman allegedly threw a planter at a man, hitting him in the head. He wasn't seriously injured.
Police said in a news release they had been arguing while playing a board game. The RCMP later confirmed it was Monopoly.
She has been charged with assault with a weapon and breach of probation.
It's believed alcohol was a factor, police said.
