A woman in Memphis, who had a bone to pick with her ex-boyfriend, should’ve perhaps heeded the saying, “vengeance is a dish best served cold.” The heat of the moment can make us do rash things as it was in this case.

Her bit of mischief, as first reported by Black Sports Online, led to her getting a visit from local law enforcement and a mugshot taken of her. The story behind her arrest has helped her picture go viral across the internet.

Memphis woman’s ironic message on ex’s garage door

One night, the unnamed woman in question decided that it would be a brilliant idea to spray-paint the word ‘TEAMWORK’ in large letters on her ex-boyfriend’s garage door. The irony of the word is that she had slept with her ex’s co-worker prior to planning her caper according to reports.

Unfortunately for her, she was spotted by neighbors sneaking onto his property with a spray-paint can in hand. Furthermore, upon reviewing security footage, police were able to identify her.

She was arrested for criminal trespassing and vandalism which led to her getting a mugshot taken. Apparently the message was meant to be a sarcastic way of mocking both men.
