Blotter: Brawl ends with woman breaking shop window

12:24 AM CDT on Sunday, October 5, 2008

By Candace Carlisle / Staff Writer

A fight between three women early Saturday morning ended abruptly when one woman was shoved into a plate glass window at the Downtown Mini Mall in Denton, police officials said in a report.

The brawl began about 12:20 a.m. and ended with the broken window and the sound of alarms from the Mini Mall, according to reports.

The 24-year-old injured female was taken by ambulance to a local hospital, and police officials said they were unsure of her condition.

Police said they are continuing their investigation and have listed the two other women as suspects but have made no arrests. 

If charged, the two women could face assault and criminal mischief charges, the reports said.

A witness who appeared on the scene shortly after the incident saw blood on the ground and said the three women appeared drunk, according to the police report.

The window will cost about $900 to replace.
