Naples, FL (AHN)-In what would seem to be nothing more than a holiday prank, a newspaper in Florida reports that the Easter Bunny was arrested for attacking a woman. Unfortunately, however, it turns out that the truth can indeed be stranger than fiction.

Naplesnews.com reports that a 6-foot tall 280 pound Easter Bunny and his assistant were arrested by Fort Myers Police for an altercation Saturday night at the Edison Mall.

According to the victim's husband Robert Johansson, "It was something like you would see in a movie."

Johansson says the incident started because the Easter Bunny decided to close shop 15 minutes early on Saturday night with a line of children and families still waiting. Robert says his wife, Erin, approached the manager to complain when she was knocked to the ground.

According to Johansson, "The next thing you know my wife is sucker punched by the manager, she is pulled to the ground by her hair and then the Easter Bunny jumps on top and starts punching my wife in the head."

Arthur McLure, who listed his occupation as the Easter Bunny, and 25-year-old Crystal Frechette were charged by the Forth Myers Police with battery and disturbing the peace.
