Man Gets Teeth Knocked Out In 7th Avenue Taco Bell Brawl: Cops

CHELSEA, MANHATTAN — Two people were sent to the hospital last week after getting bashed with a weighted sock and a chair at a local Taco Bell, police said.

The brawl broke out around 11:15 p.m. on Wednesday, Jan. 22 at the fast food's outpost at 224 Seventh Ave. between a group of men and a 21-year-old and 29-year-old, police said.

Cops did not give details on what the fight was about, but said it soon escalated to where one of the men hit the 29-year-old man in the face with a sock that had a weighted object inside and knocked out his teeth.

Another man in the group then took a chair and bashed it over the 21-year-old man's head, police said.

The group of attackers ran away from the Taco Bell with one of the victim's bags, police said.

The 21-year-old, who had a cut from the chair, and the 29-year-old were sent to Lenox Hill Hospital.
