HARRISBURG, Pa. - A woman put a Lower Paxton Township supermarket employee in a headlock after the employee refused to leave her post to fetch iced tea and lemonade, police said.
Police said a shopper at a self-checkout lane at Giant supermarket insisted Tuesday that the clerk retrieve jugs of lemonade and iced tea for her. The woman started arguing after the clerk said she couldn't leave her post at the U-Scan register, police said.
A second woman entered the store and told her friend to hurry up. When the first woman explained the clerk wouldn't help her, the second woman jabbed her finger into the clerk's head, struck her in the shoulder and placed her in a headlock, police said.
Other customers broke the fight up and the clerk escaped injury, police said. The two women ran out of the store but police said they expect to make arrests.
