Harding, a hairstylist who often buys items at the store, said she had paid for her stuff but didn’t notice right away that her son was holding a 99 cent keychain.

The man, the owner, he said something to me. I took it from my son and I threw it back in the store because I was trying to discipline my son at the same time,” she explained.

Nothing was ever taken from the store. We never got out of the store with anything,” she added. But when she walked out of the store, she realized the owner was already walking behind her.

He’s behind me saying something, it was aggressive,” she expressed. “I turned around to say something verbally back to him.

Then I went ahead and got up in his face and attempted to walk away. It looks like I hit him, but I didn’t.”

I did my hand like this, like “whatever”, and when I did, he grabbed my arm and spun me around and punched me in the lip.”
