Last weekend, Sydney police questioned a man suspected of a domestic dispute. When pressed for answers, the man confessed that he was actually in a fight with a spider. At about 2am on Sunday, residents in the suburb of Wollstonecraft called in about a woman screaming and a man yelling: ‘I’m going to kill you, you’re dead’. They also reported about the sounds of furniture being thrown.
Authorities rushed to the scene and was soon greeted by a man with a can of bug spray in hand. The following is the transcript of the conversation between the police and the misunderstood guy.
Police: ‘Where’s your wife?’
Male: ‘Umm I don’t have one’.
Police: ‘Where your girlfriend?’
Male: ‘Umm I don’t have one’.
Police: ‘We had a report of a domestic and a women screaming, where is she?”
Male: ‘I don’t know what you’re talking about, I live alone’.
Police: ‘Come on mate people clearly heard you yelling you were going to kill her and furniture getting thrown around the unit’.
Here’s where it gets hilarious.
Police: ‘Come on mate, what have you done to her’.
Male: ‘It was a spider’.
Police ‘Sorry??’
Male: ‘It was a spider, a really big one!!’
Police: ‘What about the women screaming?’
Male: ‘Yeah sorry that was me, I really really hate spiders’.
The policemen then took a look around the apartment and indeed, only the spider was hurt in the fracas. Don’t worry mate, we would have done the same if it happened to us.

It was just a Huntsman Spider which are very common, even though they grow quite big (males can reach 10-12 inch) they are not regarded as aggressive and they are harmless to healthy humans other than a bit of pain swelling etc, unlike the Funnel Web or Red Back.

Dogs/Cats/Squirrels/etc are common, grow quite big, not regarded as aggressive (depends on the dog) and are generally harmless to healthy humans other than a bit of pain, swelling, etc
But if the cops had found a dead one of them it would be a completely different story and people would be calling him evil
