Two men have been arrested over a brawl in a Park Slope grocery store during an argument over ice, authorities said yesterday. Majdi Mahmood, 19, and Juan Medina, 21, were busted Tuesday after the incident in the store at 70 Fourth Ave. about 3 p.m. on last Saturday, sources said.
Mahmood told authorities that during the fracas, Medina tried to drag him across the counter and he responded by smashing a soda bottle into Medina's face.
Medina then grabbed a knife and waved it at Mahmood, according to Mahmood's account.
Mahmood admitted to brandishing a broomstick and smashing Medina in the back with it.
Medina told authorities he pushed Mahmood's head, prompting Mahmood to toss a two-liter soda bottle at him.
The bottle hit Medina in the face.
Medina also said Mahmood chased after him with a stick and hit him once with the weapon.
Mahmood was charged with assault and Medina was charged with attempted assault.
Uonacocoler?
Cool map. I erred on my original post. I meant to say, in a sarcastic way, "What is a soda without (not with) ice?" since the fight originated over ice.
