2 Arrested After Dispute Over Crab Legs Turns Violent
NBC Connecticut ^ | 4/4/2016 | Staff

Posted on 04/04/2016 9:46:31 AM PDT by simpson96

Police in Manchester, Connecticut arrested a husband and wife after an argument at Royal Buffet got out of hand on Saturday night.

Manchester police say they were called to 410 West Middle Turnpike for a dispute that started as an argument over crab legs at the buffet table and escalated into a physical confrontation. During the scuffle, a 21-year-old man was punched in the face and lost a tooth.

That man's mother jumped in and used pepper spray on her son's attackers. Her actions were in self-defense and she is not facing any charges, according to police.

Police arrested Clifford Knight, 45, and Latoya Knight, 38, both of Windsor. Clifford Knight is charged with third-degree assault and disorder conduct. Latoya Knight is charged with disorderly conduct and threatening. Police said the suspects are husband and wife.

Clifford Knight was released on a $5,000 non-surety bond and Lataya Knight was released on a $2,500 non-surety bond. They are both expected in court on April 14.

The Manchester Fire Department responded to vent out the restaurant after the pepper spray was deployed.

The restaurant had to close while the health department assessed the air quality, but the restaurant said they opened for business at the usual time Sunday.

These folks evidently ate something crabby.

You ate too many! No, you did! -- Sounds like they were both being shellfish.
I'm not going to look, because I'm sure that has been used before.

At one point, apparently, Clifford tried to conch Latoya over the head.

“Husband and wife,” eh? That’s something different.

Me and some friends were at a seafood buffet at a ski resort. I think I ate 5-10 lbs of crab plus a few dozen shrimp. One of my friends actually went into the kitchen and suggested a better cooking technique to the chef.

One of our party got too full, went to her to vomit and came back for more. She won an honorable mention in the eating society contest.

There was a “Royal Buffet” in Wichita Falls when I was at that abominable city at the AFB there. I would go to the buffet for lunch and it was pretty good. I made the mistake of going on crab leg and shrimp night. I had no idea it was crab leg and shrimp night. It was worse than the Star Wars bar. Truly a horrible and disgusting site. I haven’t been to a buffet since.

They were social justice warriors fighting against white privilege. When they were slaves, they didn’t get crab legs, so they’re just trying to catch up (fast).

Yeah, give me a cedar plank filled with top notch Alaskan wild caught salmon and a fork. I might beat somebody up over messing with me over that.
