A couple was arrested in Florida after they injured each other during a fight, soon after their wedding ceremony. According to media reports, the couple stayed at the Hilton hotel after their wedding.

The police reached the hotel after reports of a fight between the bride and groom. When the police reached the 32-year-old bride, Stefanie Ginas’ gown was covered in blood and had a torn strap. “Her face and chest were covered in blood and she was crying. Ginas’ mother advised there was some sort of an altercation between Ginas and her husband, John Gerhard, in their hotel room,” the police told the news publication.

As per details, the husband left the hotel after the incident, before the police reached. The husband told his father that his newlywed bride “headbutted” him and “broke his nose.”
