Two Fall River police officers were hospitalized Tuesday evening after being attacked by a man with a coffee mug.
A call came in for a report of a man that was being disruptive in a yard on Dudley St. The officers responded to the residence at about 5:45 p.m.
The suspect became combative toward the officers and struck one in the head with the mug. The mug then shattered as a result.
An altercation ensued and the second officer was cut by pieces of the shattered mug during the scuffle.

What a waste of a good cup of coffee. Did the attacker also throw a box of Boston cream donuts to go along with the coffee mug?
