Christmas Abbott, Big Brother Alum, Arrested for Attack on Baby Daddy"s Alleged Side Piece

According to official police reports, it was not a very merry Tuesday afternoon for former Big Brother contestant Christmas Abbott.


TMZ and Us Weekly both confirm that the 36-year old reality star turned herself into Tampa authorities yesterday, at which time she was booked for felony criminal mischief.


For what rather incredible and violent reason? Scroll down to find out!



Based on records obtained by TMZ, Abbott drove to a local Florida gym back in August in order to confront her baby daddy’s alleged side piece.


Cops say that Abbott then flew into a complete rage, asking all kinds of questions of this unnamed woman prior to throwing a cup of coffee in her direction. But that wasn’t all.


Christmas then rammed into the alleged victim’s car in the parking lot with her own.


Abbott was eight months pregnant with her first child at the time, a boy who would be born a few weeks later and named Loyal.


The boy’s father is Benjamin Bunn, a fellow fitness enthusiast who is no longer with the Big Brother Season 19 third-place finisher.



TMZ quotes this same police report in stating that Abbott called the other woman a “pathetic home-wrecking little slut,” among other insults.


She believed at the time of the confrontation that the woman was sleeping with Bunn, even though Bunn told Us Weekly last month that he and Abbott ended their romance last December.


“Unfortunately, I had very little contact with Christmas in the last few months of her pregnancy,” Bunn told this tabloid, adding in October:


“However, prior to that, we spent almost every day with each other for six to seven months straight. I went to every doctor’s appointment, accompanied her for travel, moved furniture and did all the things that two caring adults do with and for each other…


“I was finally able to reach her a few days before [her] due date. I found out she was being induced through Instagram, and shortly thereafter received an email.”



But back to Abbott’s arrest:


The responding officer on the scene says Abbott kept yelling at her man’s mistress while the officer tried to calm her down.


Cops declined to process her because she was so far along, although her vehicle was seized and the sides agrees that Abbott could turn herself in at a later date.


And this is what she did on Tuesday.






As previously mentioned, Abbott came in third place during season 19 of Big Brother.


addition to her stint on the CBS reality show, Christmas is well-known for being a series CrossFit competitor – and she was actually the first female NASCAR pit crew member.


How cool and random, right?!?


Hours after her arrest, meanwhile, Abbott shared a video of son Loyal Atticus sleeping on her chest.


“How could I ever get enough of that sweet smile,” she wrote along with it.


“I literally can stare and watch him all day long just to watch him & maybe see a lil laugh or giggle. He simply lights up my heart & makes me so fulfilled!”

Florida Man Wearing Crocs Jumps Into Crocodile Exhibit, Gets Bitten

If you have to visit Florida for some reason, St. Augustine Alligator Farm Zoological Park should be on your list of sights to see.


But you should visit during normal visiting hours. 


And you definitely shouldn"t jump into the crocodile pit like Florida Man did.


Brandon hatfield florida man mugshot


That"s right, folks. Florida Man is at it again.


On Tuesday morning, discarded clothes and a floating Croc shoe were found floating in the St. Augustine Alligator Farm Zoological Park crocodile pit.


As you can imagine, employees of the St. Augustine alligator farm were alarmed and confused.


The pit is home to three 12-foot Nile crocodiles.


Hopes that the clothes were put there as an ill-conceived prank were soon dashed.


They found blood.


Employees looked at security video, which showed a man break into the farm and jump off of a roof into the crocodile exhibit.

When employees called the police in concern, police had just received another strange call.


Officers had responded to an incident involving a man wearing only his underwear.


People had seen a strange man crawling "in a concealed manner" while wearing almost nothing and had very correctly called the police.


Not only did surveillance footage confirm that this was the man who had broken into the alligator farm, but it was pretty obvious.


The man"s legs and feets had sustained serious injuries, believed to have been caused by crocodiles.


It seems likely that the man"s bites, from a crocodile species native to Africa rather than from alligators, would have linked him to the break-in even without the video.

This particular Florida Man was identified as Brandon Keith Hatfield.


The story that he told to police was nothing short of outlandish.


Hatfield claimed that he had been attacked by an alligator.


He didn"t say that it was a wild alligator, but instead claimed that he had encountered an old man who was walking an alligator on a leash.


Hatfield claimed that he was suddenly "surrounded by all these baby alligators."


That bizarre tale would never have explained his injuries under scrutiny.



On top of the evidence that he leapt into the crocodile exhibit, it looks like Hatfield is accused of causing property damage.


He allegedly "damaged numerous exhibits and statues around the complex causing an excess of $ 5,000 in damage."


Jay Ruditis, head of security for alligator farm, verbally narrated the security footage.


"Watch behind him, there’s a croc trying to attack him," Jay says.


"Now it’s dragging him," he narrates. "He will get on the shore. It’s got his foot right now."


"It has a good hold on his leg. It’s kind of pulling him in," he continues. "The croc will flip him, a little death roll in a moment."


Death rolls are how crocodiles disorient, exhaust, and drown their prey. They also use the maneuver to tear off meat from large corpses.


"The croc still has him, so what he does is tries to kick it with his foot," Jay concludes.

Apparently, Hatfield ended up on the lawn of a neighboring property.


"A little weird to see somebody that early in just boxers," a neighbor remakred. "Going over your wall into your property saying ‘I was held hostage in a pool with gators"


"He says, ‘Yeah, I got bit by alligators.’" the neighbor shares. "Everybody’s looking at him like, ‘OK, he’s got to be on something,""


Police have acknowledged that "he was possibly high on something"


Hatfield has been charged with Burglary, Criminal Mischief, and Violation of Probation


We can"t claim to be shocked to our cores that this guy was on probation.

We"re glad that he survived, but a little surprised that any Florida Man would apparently mistake crocodiles for alligators.


Alligators are opportunistic predators that will absolutely eat a human if given the chance.


But in general, Floridians see them as a nuisance more than anything else. Like, "oh, one got in the pool again."


Nile crocodiles are one of the largest and most dangerous predators on the face of the planet. These things eat lions.


If we had to guess, we would say that Hatfield only escaped because these captive crocs are well fed and had little motivation.


We"re glad that the crocodiles are okay. They, we should remember, are the true innocents in this story.
