We've all been there: roommate disputes over splitting bills. But two men took the fight too far when a fight over an $80 phone bill led to a stabbing. Lester Scott, 56, allegedly stabbed David Gant, 54, on Friday night after a fight over the bill. Gant was taken in critical condition to Mount Sinai Hospital and Scott was charged with aggravated domestic battery though he claims Gant threatened him first.
