DETROIT, MI - Two sisters were arrested after allegedly stabbing a restaurant worker on Detroit's east side over a wrong food order, according to prosecutors.
The women, Brianna and Kierianna Long, were charged with assault with intent to murder, assault with intent to do great bodily harm less than murder and assault with a dangerous weapon, Click On Detroit reported. The stabbing happened in the 17100 block of E Warren Avenue on May 30, just after 6:00 p.m., police said.
Prosecutors allege that after the sisters received the wrong food order from a worker, they argued with the worker, went behind the counter and began assaulting the worker.
Brianna and Kierianna allegedly chased the worker throughout the restaurant while throwing things at the worker. While the worker threw things back at the sisters, prosecutors said they picked up a knife that was thrown at them and used it to stab the worker in the stomach.
Prosecutors also said hot grease was attempted to be thrown at the worker, and one of the sisters allegedly told the worker, "I'm going to kill you," during the alleged assault.
The worker was taken to a local hospital and had to undergo surgery, according to officials. Brianna and Kierianna allegedly drove away from the scene, but were later taken into custody. Brianna, who was nine months pregnant when the alleged stabbing happened, gave birth four days before her arraignment.
During the arraignment, Brianna's defense attorney claimed the worker told the sisters that they "don't give a f*ck" about the wrong food order and threw things at Brianna and her sister first.
Brianna pleaded with the judge during the arraignment hearing, stating that she was innocent and that she had a four-day-old baby at home. The judge expressed serious concern that a food order error led to an alleged violent assault, leading the judge to set a high bond.
Brianna was given a $25,000 cash bond. Kierianna was given a $100,000 cash bond. If bond is posted, they are required to wear a GPS bracelet.
