MIAMI GARDENS, Fla. — A man is accused of threatening the daughter of a South Florida police chief with a gun after the woman, who works at Starbucks, neglected to put cream cheese on his bagel, authorities said.

Omar Wright, 38, was arrested Thursday and charged with aggravated assault with a firearm and armed robbery with a firearm, according to Miami-Dade County online court records.

Wright posted $10,000 bail on Saturday, online records show.

According to police, the 23-year-old woman, the oldest daughter of Miami Gardens Police Chief Delma Noel-Pratt, was working as a barista at a Starbucks drive-thru window Wednesday, the Miami Herald reported. According to an arrest report, Wright pulled out a gun because he was upset that no cream cheese was on the bagel he had bought, WFOR reported.

Police said Wright began using profanity and brandished a black handgun, then told her he would hurt her, according to WTVJ.

Investigators allege that surveillance cameras showed Wright waving the gun, although he was not necessarily pointing the weapon at anyone, WPLG reported.

After Wright was given the cream cheese he left the Starbucks, the television station reported.

“Mr. Wright’s demands for cream cheese, while armed with a firearm, caused a well-founded fear in the victim leading her to believe that if she didn’t give him the cream cheese, whether he pays for it or not, her life was being put at risk,” the arrest report states.(snip)

Police interviewed Wright on Friday, the Herald reported. According to the police report, Wright told authorities he had grabbed the gun and pointed it in the air because it was falling out of his pocket while he was arguing with the barista, the newspaper reported.

After posting bail, Wright answered questions from a reporter.

“Always go to Dunkin’ Donuts,” Wright told WPLG. “Never Starbucks.”

Well, at least he is right about that.

So, some lunatic is so unhinged that he pulls a gun because he didn’t get cream cheese. So he gets bail without a psych eval?

The Judge needs to be impeached and thrown from office. As foes the DA if he/she didn’t demand remand.
