Jealous Texas Woman Arrested for Throwing 25-Pound Weight at Romantic Rival
A woman in Texas has been arrested after she allegedly threw a 25-pound weight plate at her romantic rival's head in a fit of jealousy. Aralyn Martinez, 24, was taken into custody by the Harris County Constable Precinct 4 Office on January 7 for allegedly attacking "someone her partner was involved with" at a 24 Hour Fitness gym in Spring, Texas.
According to authorities, Martinez yelled "B----, I'm going to drop this 25-pound weight plate on you" before throwing the weight towards her rival's head. However, the woman was able to move out of the way just in time and avoid serious injury.
Martinez was later arrested and booked into the Harris County Jail, where she faces charges of aggravated assault with a deadly weapon, a felony. Her bond has been set at $1,000, and her arraignment is scheduled for Thursday.
The incident highlights the dangers of violence in fitness centers and the importance of maintaining a safe environment for gym-goers. "Not very often with weights and not very often at a gym," said Precinct 4 Captain Juan Flores, who added that even small weights can be deadly if used as a weapon.
Martinez's arrest has sparked concerns about domestic violence and the role of jealousy in violent behavior. As she awaits her arraignment, Martinez will face serious consequences for her actions, which could have had devastating results.

! She was at the gym, just chillin', and then out of nowhere, she's like a crazy woman, throwin' weights around 
. And it's like, what's the story with this romantic rival? Wasn't there some drama goin' on that we don't know about? 
Like, why was she so jealous to start with? And did her partner even tell her to stop or were they just chillin', lookin' all innocent 
? I'm thinkin' there's more to this story than meets the eye... 
Can you believe this chick? Threw a 25-pound weight plate at some poor dude's head because he was "involved" with her partner? That's like me throwing a fridge at someone 'cause they borrowed my video game console 
I mean, what's next? Using a treadmill to stomp on someone's toes? 
At least the girl dodged out of the way in time, but still, that's some crazy stuff right there! And now she's got a felony charge and a $1,000 bond... guess you could say her love life is weighing her down 
.
I don't get why people still throw stuff at each other over guys 
like that's never gonna end well. It's crazy how jealous can take someone to a whole new level of crazy 
. And the fact that it happened in a gym is just...
. I mean, throwing a 25-pound weight plate at someone because they were involved with her partner? That's just not okay 
. We need to talk about this domestic violence thing more, like what's going on in Martinez's head that makes her feel the need to attack someone? Was she feeling insecure or threatened or something? 
domestic violence is no joke & this girl's behavior was super alarming but also kinda sad that she felt so threatened to resort to something as crazy as throwing a heavy weight 
maybe she needs help or counseling? anyway glad nobody got hurt more seriously 
. And then you got this whole domestic violence thing, which is serious, but also, like, isn't she thinking about how her actions are going to affect HER partner? Poor guy must be freaking out right now 
... and what's with the 25-pound weight plate? That's not just a dumb move, that's a felony offense 
. Someone needs to teach this girl some self-control and respect for others' boundaries 
... and what's with the jealousy thing? can't people just communicate their feelings or something instead of resorting to violence 
... and yeah, gyms need to have better security too 
. It's like, girl, take a deep breath and get over yourself (or maybe just work on that whole 'self-love' thing). I mean, a 25-pound weight plate? That's just excessive... and also kinda hilarious 
. Can you even imagine being in that gym and hearing someone yell that?! 
! As if the other person didn't already know you were jealous, right? 
she's lucky the other girl wasn't hurt more badly
