Owner of chili finger identified

By at 12:12 pm Friday, May 13

Anna Ayala, the dodgy woman who claimed she bit into a finger in a bowl of Wendy's chili and was later arrested, acquired the body part "from an associate of her husband who lost the digit in an industrial accident," reports the Associated Press. Background here. More from the AP:
“The jig is up. The puzzle pieces are beginning to fall into place,” Police Chief Rob Davis said.

The man is from Nevada and lost a part of his finger in an accident last December, Davis said. His identity was traced through a tip made to Wendy’s hot line, he said...

The man who lost the finger, whose name was not released, had given the finger fragment to (Ayala's husband, Jamie) Plascencia, Davis said.
