ORLANDO (WBBM NEWSRADIO) - A Westchester woman is facing charges for allegedly slapping her husband during a vacation at Disney World earlier this month.

31-year-old Asia Curry, married mother of two, had spent the day, June 3, at Disney’s Animal Kingdom with her family when she and her husband began fighting in the parking lot, the arrest report noted. Curry’s husband disclosed to authorities that “they began to argue verbally about marital issues related to the stress of their vacation at Disney World.”

The Orange County Sheriff’s Department said the argument, which occurred in front of a deputy, then escalated quickly, with Curry screaming and cursing at her husband. According to the police report, the husband attempted to walk away but Curry started to follow him. A sheriff deputy said Curry began spitting in the direction of her husband and when he reached his squad car, Curry “slapped him with an open hand in the back of his head.”

Curry explained in the police report that she thought her husband deserved to be hit.

The husband was not injured in the incident and despite pleas to the Orange County Sheriff’s  to not press charges, Curry was taken into custody and charged with domestic violence.

Curry’s arraignment is set for August 17.
