Woman Attacked, Threatened To Stab Restaurant Worker: Nassau PD

A Wyandanch woman was arrested by Nassau Police early Thursday after police say she attacked a Massapequa restaurant employee with a liquor bottle and threatened to stab him.

According to police, Skylar Williams, 32, of South 28th Street, was eating at the TGI Fridays at 5205 Sunrise Highway in Massapequa at 12:30 a.m. when she walked behind the bar and tried to pack up food she had ordered as part of an all-you-can-eat promotion. Police say Williams became upset after a 32-year-old male employee of the restaurant told her it was against restaurant policy for her to be behind the bar packing food to go.

Williams then picked up a bottle of liquor and tried to hit the employee with it, police said. She then pulled out a black knife and threatened to stab the employee as he tried to stop her leaving with the bottle, police said.

Williams, along with a female friend, left the restaurant on foot. Williams was later found in the back yard of a home on Burton Lane with the assistance of the Canine Unit. She was arrested without incident. Police say officers found the liquor bottle, knife and several Oxycodone pills at the scene when Williams was arrested.

Williams is charged with first-degree robbery, second-degree menacing, fourth-degree criminal possession of a weapon and seventh-degree criminal possession of a controlled substance. She was arraigned today in First District Court in Hempstead.
