Police: 2 employees face charges after fight at Rally's in Penn Hills
Two female employees were fired from Rally’s in Penn Hills and charged with assault after police said they got into a fight in front of customers.
Police Chief Howard Burton said a 17-year-old and a 25-year-old both were cited for disorderly conduct in connection with an incident Friday afternoon at the fast food restaurant on Frankstown Road. The 17-year-old also faces a charge of criminal mischief.
Police said witnesses told them the fight began after the teen flirted with the older woman’s boyfriend.
Burton said no one was injured, and the employees no longer work at the business.
A video of the fight was posted to the Facebook page Penn Hills Informer.
A message left at Rally’s was not immediately returned.
