IT WASN'T HIS DAY, WELL, HIS TWO DAYS

 4022

Xaxier Thomas-Jones was having a bad day, well, actually two bad days in January of this year.

He buzzed the door of a private apartment complex gym posing as someone who lived there. The one and only woman inside, Nashali Alma, who was using the equipment at the time, thought she recognized him, and opened the door. (Bad idea. Residents are given a door code).

Having gained entrance, Xaxier proceeded to assault Nashali. In the much publicized video, the two struggle with one another, sometimes going down on the floor. The guy in a headlock, the girl in a headlock, the girl pulling his beard, the guy slapping her about, kicking and scratching, rolling all over the carpet.

The attack lasts eight minutes with neither giving an inch. Ultimately, the victim manages to put a weight machine between herself and the attacker, and speaks into her phone. "Siri, call 911." Ultimately, the perpetrator flees.

In an interview Nashali said, "I fight. I am a born fighter. I am strong, even stronger than I realized. He picked the wrong woman to assault. My mama raised me to never give up. That's the kind of lady I am."

The next day, Xaxier strikes again. Seeing a woman on her balcony, he breaks into her apartment. He could not have known that her fiance was also inside the apartment. As a result, he had a second bad day. He was summarily arrested.

Me thinks this loser picked the wrong victim... twice.
