A woman with a 6-month-old child at home allegedly stabbed two bouncers – one in the face, one in the neck and back – with a spike from a key chain and bit a third at a bar in Connecticut on Saturday. . WVIT TV reported.
What are the details?
Around 1:30 a.m., bouncers at the 75 Center in Southington “attempted to remove several people from the bar who were in an altercation,” including 24-year-old Heidi Montez of Wallingford, , and his 28-year-old brother. Citing court documents, the agency said the suspects were Adrian Montez, an elderly resident of Springfield, Massachusetts, and Stuart Chase, 32, of Leeds, Massachusetts.
WVIT cited the incident report and said he was told to leave when he continued his “abusive and aggressive behavior” but did not do so.
This led to bouncers physically removing them from the bar and the situation escalated, the department said.
According to WVIT, cell phone video shows Chase punching the bouncer, followed by a fight on the sidewalk.
Heidi Montez can be heard saying in the video, “Let him go now, let him go,” the station said.
At that point, she is suspected of using pepper spray, stabbing two bouncers and biting a third, WVIT reported.
“The charges are that he stabbed a security guard in the back and neck at the restaurant and also stabbed another security guard in the face,” the assistant state’s attorney said in court Monday, according to the department. “Both stabbings were done with the spikes on her keychain and she allegedly bit the third person in the chest.”
CT Insider said According to a police report, Heidi Montez “punched the bouncer in the back of the head while pinching his shin between her fingers, then changed her grip to an ‘ice pick’ style and continued to punch the bouncer in the head. The bouncer looked him in the eye. “There was blood everywhere,” the report said. The newspaper added that she used the shanks “like brass knuckles”.
CT Insider, citing a police report, said police found Heidi Montez and Adrian Montez in a public parking lot across the street, struggled with them, and took away their shins, which had blood on them. . Police added that both were taken into custody, as was Chase.
“Long-term nerve damage”
“All three victims went to the hospital, and one who was stabbed in the face required stitches and has long-term neurological damage,” prosecutors said, according to WVIT.
Heidi Montez’s public defender asked for the bail to be reduced, citing self-defense because she had a 6-month-old child at home who needed her, the agency said.
“We have people here who are prepared to submit affidavits and witness statements that show this was self-defense,” her public defender told the judge, WVIT reported. “We understand that the charges are serious and there are serious injuries here.”
A judge set bail for Heidi Montez at $200,000 on charges including second-degree assault, third-degree assault and breach of peace, the department said, adding that she was ordered to have no contact with the victims. .
Court records Tuesday showed Heidi Montez has not been released from custody and is scheduled to appear in court on April 8.
Chase was charged with hindering/resisting arrest and second-degree breach of peace, WVIT reported, adding that his bail was set at $25,000. Court records Tuesday showed Chase had not been released from custody. He has no court date.
Adrian Montez was also charged with hindering/resisting arrest and second-degree breach of peace and was released on a promise to appear in court, the department said.
