They gathered Sunday at a trendy downtown Los Angeles restaurant — a group of women out for brunch. But police said the outing devolved into a fight involving a knife and a bottle that was used to strike a fellow diner's skull.
Five women ended up at a hospital, with one critically hurt.
Dara Newsome, 29, and Kumiko Howard, 26, were arrested Sunday after the altercation inside Zaya, a dining spot in a historic building that markets itself as “a safe and welcoming gathering space.”
Police said the all-female group was enjoying brunch inside the restaurant in the 500 block of West 7th Street — until it came time to pay the bill, when an argument erupted.
Los Angeles Police Capt. Kelly Muniz, who oversees the downtown area, told The Times that one woman then grabbed a knife and stabbed at least two people in the group. Another woman grabbed a bottle and smashed it on the initial assailant’s head, police said.
Of the five people taken to the hospital, one was in serious condition, the Los Angeles Fire Department confirmed this week. The injured women ranged in age from 26 to 37. Police said Tuesday that there was no update on their recovery.
No information was available on their relationships to one another or further details on what triggered the violence.
Police arrived around 5 p.m. and arrested Newsome and Howard.
Both women were booked on felony charges. Howard remains in custody.
Newsome posted $30,000 bail on Monday, according to booking records. Her next court date is April 13.

“until it came time to pay the bill, when an argument erupted.”
Splitting the check never works. There is always someone who runs up the bill. Ask for separate checks. It’s not too hard on the server.
Jane Goodall puts her biboculars down and begins furiously writing in her notebook.
An event called Sweet Serenade, with DJs and an emcee, was happening at the restaurant when the wild fight occurred.
Oh, it was happening all right.
Sweet Serenade is a regular thing at the club . A search showed Instagram posts of events there.
Those heifers were just being ghetto , it’s a thing, apply liquor and stand back.
On deep-black skin, they are even more ugly.
Mottling!
Regards,
Why am I not surprised.🙄
Just awful....what do these people actually do?
No need to see a picture with those NAMES!!!
Mrs. and mistress Ali meet?.
“Police said the all-female group was enjoying brunch inside the restaurant in the 500 block of West 7th Street — until it came time to pay the bill, when an argument erupted.” There was something the ladies weren’t enjoying.
And then they can all not tip the server separately. I'm not kidding, blacks like these heifers are notorious non-tippers. They seem to have the idea that they're too important and entitled to leave tips. Plus they're cheapskates to all hell, but not when it comes to indulging themselves.
Them...avoid them.
Which are the worse tippers...white Canadian women or obese American black females?
