Police are looking for a woman who pointed a gun at a barber all because her son's haircut was taking too long.
Security video captures her pulling out a gun in at Allstate Barber College on Lorain Avenue in Cleveland on April 14. Police say she threatens the barbers for taking too long to cut her son's hair. While she pointed the gun at the victim, she allegedly said, "I got two clips. I'll pop you!"
The victim finished the cut and the suspect left with her two children. Student barber, Al Pugh, says he was shook. "You don't know what people is thinking so yeah, she could have shot me, maybe even shot her son," he said.
The barbers calmed her down and she left the shop with her kids. No one was hurt but they tell me the entire incident was bizarre.
"She shouldn't have pulled a gun out. Her life was not threatened," said Pugh. They called police but detectives haven't found the woman. Pugh says he can't stop thinking about the woman's son, sitting there in the chair.
"He was just kind of numb to it. He didn't move, he was numb to it," said Pugh.
Owner Michael D'Amico says the barbers did everything they could. He's been in business since the 1960s and says he doesn't want people to fear coming to his barbershop. He wants this angry mother off the streets.
"Hopefully they'll get this lady and get her straightened out somehow. She surely shouldn't be carrying a gun," said D'Amico.
Pugh says he's just glad she didn't follow through on her threats and "POP" anyone especially over something so trivial.
"Over a haircut. A six-dollar hair cut. A six dollar haircut," he said shaking his head.

I said, “Hey, there, barber, with the hair colored auburn, whatchoo tryin’ to prove?”
Eh, never mind.
*** He should have corrected her. They’re magazines. ***
That was my first thought. I would have just automatically said, “They’re called magazines.”
And then she would have shot me...
Ignorant woman, those are magazines.
>> I played “guess the race” as soon as I read the headline.
Hmmmm .... if this keeps up, I’ll have to pull out my copy of “No Guns for Negroes” to see if it says something about dumba$$es being an exception to the 2nd amendment.
Great... punny.
BOL!
He was shook?
Shook? Sigh...
Yep.
Not an angry white woman with a MAGA cap? I’m shocked!
Did she realize that would have made the haircuts take longer?
Not surprised.
He's probably used to seeing his mom threaten people with the gun.
Whats wrong with schools these days? Clearly it should have been “shookted”.
Did she pay for the haircut?
Another shooting less than a block from my daughter’s condo in Uptown(Chicago) two in as many days. The police are are either powerless or impotent, it is getting close to that time.
10 years in jail. Period. This is insane.
She’s got 2 clips and the barber has a pair of clippers. Don’t mess with barbers or tattoo artists in the middle of a job.
Lol, no kidding.
WOW, I’m pretty impatient, I have no patience actually, but I can’t see pulling a gun on a barber cutting my kid’s hair. Then again, I always say I’ll never own a gun because I’ll shoot the wrong person at the wrong time for the wrong reason, so you never know....I could do what this woman did. I mean, hey, at least she didn’t actually shoot anybody!
Don't you be the first.....
