HOUSTON – A woman was arrested after allegedly throwing a weighted plate at another woman’s head at a 24 Hour Fitness in Houston, according to deputies with Constable Mark Herman’s Office.
The incident occurred on Jan. 7 at the 24 Hour Fitness located at 1000 Lake Plaza Drive.
Deputies said the suspect recognized the victim as someone her partner was involved with and assaulted her inside the gym.
The suspect walked up to the woman at the gym, held a 25-pound weight plate and said, “B**** I’m going to drop this plate on you.”
During the altercation, investigators said the woman threw the 25-weight plate toward the victim’s head in an attempt to cause injury.
The suspect was detained at the scene and identified as Aralyn Martinez.
She was arrested and booked into the Harris County Jail, where she was charged with aggravated assault. Her bond was set at $1,000.

Found her, Laz!
Just $1000 for bail. That means just $100.
All that gym time and lifting finally paid off for her! All I could do is drop the plate on my foot.
I can fix her!
well, if this female was able to throw 25 pound weights around ... maybe 24hour fitness is a good gym?
I hope the plate wasn’t Spode; those things are expensive.
I can fix her.
With some duct tape.
Attractive, strong, and fit women are the best.
Was the victim able to buffet the projectile?
More importantly, Bill and Ted weighed in.
Beat me to it
Psychologist TV and radio host Dr. Ray Guarendi said he keeps up with his regular weight training now in his 50’s.
But he said he and his buddies used to push each other to add plates.
“In the old days I could add a plate and match them all. Now the only place I add plates is the all you can eat buffets.”
“My ID? Here, I carry it up in front so it won’t get lost. Just a second, it seems to have slipped down a little.”
Pink Panther movie where Cato turned his apartment into a house of ill repute. Clouseau turned around suddenly and the woman in a low cut leather outfit was next to him at eye level.
“And you, too.....You two should be ashamed of yourselves.”
The suspect was detained at the scene and identified as Aralyn Martinez. Aralyn you might be the lady I’ve been searching for.
No no no! No you didn’t! She’s supposed to be wearing a bikini and high heels!
