Look at the stars. Look how they shine for...hey, HELP!
The recent karaoke-based violence in Wallingford at first seems surprising. A "little hippy girl" freaked out on a guy who was attempting to sing Cold Play's Yellow and was so incensed that she went so far as to headbut arresting officers as they were restraining her on the pavement outside of Changes. However, Seattlest is surprised the guy wasn't bum rushed by the entire bar. Check out this video: see if you can last one minute without wanting to cold cock the guy.
From the P-I's hilarious account:
"It took three or four of us to hold her down," said Robert Willmette, one of the bartenders at Changes.The woman, Willmette said, "went crazy" when she got outside, punching him twice in the face, and throwing blows at the others gathered around her.
But the person who drew most of the music critic's ire was an off-duty Seattle police officer. The off-duty officer identified herself as a cop, gave her badge number and had another patron call 911 to request help for an officer.
The response was fast and overwhelming, with both patrol officers and Gang Unit detectives converging on the normally tame neighborhood bar.
"They blocked the whole street off," Willmette said.
According to the police report, the woman's rage only grew when the uniformed officers arrived.
