Woman Put Man In Headlock At Tony's Fresh Market While Video Surveillance Captured Her Crime: Joliet Police

JOLIET, IL — Joliet's Tony's Fresh Market store, which opened a few years ago after being an empty Kmart store for years, was the site of a Joliet police arrest this week that landed a 47-year-old woman in the Will County Jail.

According to Joliet police spokesman Dwayne English, at 6:51 p.m. on Wednesday, the officers responded to the Tony’s Fresh Market at 1801 West Jefferson Street for a domestic disturbance.

The Joliet police said that while driving in the 1800 block of West Jefferson Street, Heather Surdey allegedly punched her boyfriend multiple times in the face as he operated the vehicle.

Both people then entered the grocery store, where it is believed Surdey again attacked the victim by placing him in a headlock, English indicated.

He said the incident inside the store was captured on video surveillance and Surdey was taken into custody without incident and charged with domestic battery. She was processed at the Joliet Police Department and subsequently transferred to the Will County Adult Detention Facility.

The jail logs indicate that Surdey comes from Bonfield, a tiny village in Kankakee County of about 350 people.
