From Hartford Courant:
Two of rapper Lil Wayne’s ghetto dancers were arrested and charged with assaulting a waitress during a dispute over splitting a check at a P.F. Chang’s resturant.
Della Hamby, 26, (top) of North Hollywood, Calif., and Jennifer Slaughter, 24, of Auburn Hills, Mich., were charged with third-degree assault and second-degree breach of peace.
According to the Hartford Courant, Hamby, Slaughter, and another woman who was not charged attacked the waitress because she advised them that they should have asked to be allowed to split the check at the beginning of the meal and not at the end.
The women paid and left, but they later returned to retrieve a cell phone that one had left behind. They swore at the waitress and threatened her. Then, witnesses told police, one pulled the waitress’s hair while the other punched her. They threw the waitress to the floor and continued punching her, police said.
The third patron did not participate in the beating, police said. The waitress sustained minor injuries. A worker at the restaurant said Monday that she was OK.
Police found the suspects across New Britain Avenue from the mall, in front of the Old Navy store.
A spokeswoman for P.F. Chang’s said she could not comment on the incident because “this is an active investigation.†West Hartford police said Monday their investigation into the incident was closed with the arrests of Slaughter and Hamby.
