Best crimes of the Summer — Three officers responded to a fight after a May 29 graduation ceremony at the Carolina Coliseum. The victim told police that after the ceremony, a woman came from behind and grabbed her hair, repeatedly hitting her in the head and saying “I told you I was going to find you and get up.” Bystanders pulled the woman off of the victim before police arrived. Witnesses told police that after the two were separated, the assailant bragged, laughed and said “I just beat her ass.” When police questioned the assailant about the incident, she jokingly replied that she and the victim had an “ongoing disagreement” and admitted to hitting her in the head from behind. She was then arrested for assault and transported to Alvin S. Glenn Detention Center. The victim inquired about getting a restraining order.
