<div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">A night of post-game partying turned ugly for Boston Celtics [team stats] point guard Delonte West when his live-in girlfriend allegedly choked and bit him and tried to slash her own wrists with shards of glass because he dumped her. West?s girlfriend, Caryn Taylor, skipped court yesterday where she was supposed to have been arraigned on domestic assault and battery charges for the Dec. 21, 2006, alleged attack in the couple?s Waltham apartment. A warrant for her arrest was issued, authorities said. The mayhem began after the Green lost to the Golden State Warriors at the TD Banknorth Garden when Taylor, 31, got into an argument with West?s sister, Danielle. Taylor, who had a ?few cocktails? at the game, ?pushed? Danielle West during the dispute, according to a police report. The group hit downtown hotspot District after the game where Delonte West confronted Taylor about the fight with his sister. ?During this conversation West stated that Taylor became argumentative and put her hands around his throat in a choking manner,? the report states. West, 23, told Taylor ?their relationship was over,? and she left the club, telling him she was going to stay at a hotel and would be moving out of their apartment the next day. But when West, his sister and some friends returned to the apartment around 2:30 a.m., Taylor was there and she started yelling at him, reportedly calling him a ?(expletive) bastard.? West told cops that she went upstairs to the bathroom, slammed the door and started smashing glass. West, 23, went into the bathroom and found her covered in blood and jabbing at her wrists with shards of glass. Taylor bit West on the hand as he tried to stop her from slashing herself, the report states. West?s sister called 911 and police took Taylor to Newton Wellesely Hospital where she was treated for ?superficial? wounds to both wrists, police said. Taylor told police she wasn?t trying to kill herself but was cutting herself to show West she wasn?t ?(expletive) around? about their relationship. She said she was angry because West?s friends and family had been staying with them and were ?picking on her.? A phone number for Taylor could not be found and court papers obtained by the Herald did not list an attorney for her. A spokesman for Middlesex District Attorney Gerry Leone declined comment. </div> http://news.bostonherald.com/localRegional...325&format=text
