A fight over a seat at a popular restaurant ended with a Villager behind bars.
The altercation took place at about 7 p.m. Friday at Harvest Restaurant at Brownwood Paddock Square.
Julie Ann Marsh, 56, of the Village of Pine Ridge, took a seat at the outside bar at the restaurant, but the seat had been claimed by another couple, according to an arrest report from the Wildwood Police Department. The couple apparently confronted Marsh when they returned from the restroom.
The man informed Marsh she was in his chair, prompting a verbal altercation. Marsh announced she was “not getting up from the chair,” the report said.
The Chicago native began “fighting” with the man’s female date over the chair. The man was pushed during the altercation.
The man signed an intent to prosecute form, while his female companion “was not cooperative” with police.
Marsh was arrested on a charge of battery. She was booked at the Sumter County Detention Center and released after posting $500 bond.
Did she hit him with her cane?..............

The location would be nice in the heading. Love the posting.
I don’t know who’s right or who’s wrong in this situation, but I do know this. Both parties at a table should not leave to go to the restroom at the same time. Someone needs to stay behind so situation like this do not happen.
“Children, please. Why can’t we all just get along?”
I thought it was the third amendment.

If the guy were to have left his gal aline at the bar, he’d have left her open to be hit on by other guys. Based on the potential for this kind of skullduggery, it’s not clear that going to the restroom in shifts, as you seem to be suggesting, is ideal, or would have been the right move.
It depends on whether they left partial drinks behind. If the bartender had cleared things, the seat became open.
Hmm.
I wouldn’t know about that. It’s been years and years since I’ve been to a bar where it would be unsafe and unwise to leave a woman alone for two or three minutes.
I just don’t go to dumps like that. But evidently this place was just such a dump where fights break out over empty tables.
Smart people would not go there.

Exactly.
Again I don’t know the facts, but I blame the people who abandoned the table.
she looks like a dude!!
“Both parties at a table should not leave to go to the restroom at the same time.”
Shoot. Doesn’t everybody know that?
If the guy were to have left his gal alone at the bar, he’d have left her open to be hit on by other guys.
I use such opportunities to enamor the gal upon my return:
“Hey buddy, time to go find the second best looking girl in this place. See ya.”
Is this near Del Boca Vista?
Absolutely correct
Most “adults” know this and take turns going to the restroom; precisely to prevent this situation
