WOMAN ARRESTED AFTER ALLEGEDLY FILLING EX'S GAS TANK WITH GLITTER AND LEAVING 147 BREAKUP POEMS IN HIS GLOVE BOX
WOMAN ARRESTED AFTER ALLEGEDLY FILLING EX'S GAS TANK WITH GLITTER AND LEAVING 147 BREAKUP POEMS IN HIS GLOVE BOX TAMPA, Fla. — A Florida woman is facing criminal mischief charges after police say she turned her ex-boyfriend's pickup truck into what investigators described as "the most emotionally aggressive craft project we've ever seen." Authorities say Courtney Ellis, 29, spent nearly three hours outside her ex's apartment after learning he'd updated his Facebook status from "It's Complicated" to "Living My Best Life." According to the arrest report, Ellis allegedly poured several pounds of silver glitter into the truck's gas tank before unlocking the vehicle with a spare key she had forgotten to return months earlier. Inside, deputies say she filled the glove box with 147 handwritten breakup poems, each numbered in chronological order and titled things like You Were My Favorite Red Flag, Your Mother Was Right About You, and Check Engine, Check Yourself. When the truck refused to start the next morning, mechanics reportedly discovered what one technician described as "an arts-and-crafts apocalypse inside the fuel system." Investigators say the cleanup bill exceeded $9,000, while the owner admitted he was still finding glitter in his driveway, garage, and beard days later. Officers say Ellis calmly admitted writing the poems but insisted the glitter was "symbolic, not mechanical." "I just wanted him to remember me every time the sun hit his truck," she allegedly told deputies. Social media immediately divided into two camps. One side called it completely unhinged. The other admitted the breakup poems sounded more painful than the repair bill. Images and full story copyrighted TBC Viral Media 2026. #funny #comedy #satire #FORENTERTAINMENTONLY
