Waffle Attack Almost Turns Deadly

This is just too funny ....

From WLTX.com, Columbia South Carolina, comes the story of an almost deadly incident at a Manning, SC Waffle House, sparked by a waffle.

Crystal Samuel, patron, was attempting to eat with some of her friends ...

"I thought I was gonna get me a All Star" - Crystal Samuel

Ms. Samuel apparently didn't get what she ordered, and became abusive towards the waitress, a Ms. Yakeisha Ward. Samuel ended up throwing a waffle at Ward. Even though it didn't hit her, it was on. Ward came over the counter to tackle Samuel. The fight spilled out into the parking lot, where Ward went to her car and grabbed a pistol. The pistol went off during the scuffle, hitting Samuel in the arm. Ward then pistol whipped Samuel in the head, before Sheriff's deputies arrived and seperated them.

Ward was arrested, and posted $500 bond. She was back at work at the Waffle House the next day.

Samuel was released from the hospital after bullet fragments were removed from her arm. When contacted by local news, she reportedly said "bad customer service...." .

This just goes to show that you never, ever, want to complain about food you are served.

Well, damn! Guess she didn't get no tip, either!
Altho, my hairdresser one time shot her "fiancee", but it wasn't at work. Geez.
