Mayfair: Facebook Fight

Mayfair Mall has not been having a very good June.

Earlier this week, there was the story of the teen thug pulling a gun on a couple in the Mayfair parking lot at around 2:00 in the afternoon.

Now, we hear about a violent fight that took place at the mall last week.

From WauwatosaNOW:


A fight between two 23-year-old Milwaukee women at Mayfair last week resulted in hair scattered on the floor, nearly two dozen punches thrown and a bleeding eye, according to a Wauwatosa police report.

Also from the report:

One of the women was shopping at Journeys shoe store when the second entered, yelling about Facebook, at 6:32 p.m. June 22.

She pulled the first woman out of the store by her hair and punched her repeatedly, resulting in an eye injury.

Security guards arrived and pulled them apart.

Both women were arrested for disorderly conduct and the district attorney is expected to issue charges this week.

This wasn't a minor disagreement playing out in public.

This was a scary, violent incident.

There's nothing wrong with Mayfair.

There is quite a bit wrong with some of its patrons.

This handful of bad people may serve to keep many good people away from Mayfair.

Mayfair Parking Lot, Gun

More trouble at Mayfair Mall--

What's especially troubling about this most recent report of trouble at Mayfair is that the incident took place in broad daylight in the middle of the afternoon.

From WauwatosaNOW:

A teenage boy pulled a gun and threatened a couple in the Mayfair parking lot last week, according to a Wauwatosa police report.

Also from the report:

The Brookfield couple got out of their car and began to open the trunk, and then they heard a loud stomp and indistinguishable noise. The teen caught the couple off guard, and he and the car owner exchanged words at 1:57 p.m. Wednesday.

When the teen got six or seven cars away, he pulled a gun from his pocket and said "Do you wanna die?" and "Do you want me to kill your wife?"

The couple ran into the mall and called the police.

They said the perpetrator appeared in his late teens and further described him as black, about 6 feet, 1 inch, about 145 pounds and having a swollen left eye. He was dressed in an oversized white shirt, long dark jean shorts and a white baseball cap.

I don't know what sort of words were exchanged between the thug and the car owner.

In any event, nothing would warrant pulling a gun and threatening to murder.

It's very disturbing that one isn't safe in the parking lot at Mayfair at 1:57 in the afternoon.
