Two sisters in Detroit are facing serious felony charges after prosecutors say a wrong food order turned into a violent attack on a restaurant worker.
Kierianna Long and Brianna Long were charged after the May 30 incident at a chicken restaurant, according to Metro Detroit News.
Prosecutors said the sisters became angry after receiving an incorrect order. They allegedly went behind the counter and attacked the employee, Metro Detroit News and WDIV reported.
The situation reportedly escalated quickly. The sisters allegedly chased the worker through the restaurant and threw items at her, including hot grease, pots and pans.
One of the sisters is also accused of stabbing the worker in the stomach. WDIV reported that one of them allegedly told the employee, “I’m going to kill you.”
The employee, who has not been publicly identified, was described by Metro Detroit News as a 23-year-old woman. She was hospitalized and needed surgery after the alleged attack, according to WDIV.
At one point, the worker reportedly ran out of the restaurant and hid inside a stranger’s vehicle while trying to call for help.
Officials said the sisters fled the restaurant after the alleged assault but were later arrested.
According to prosecutors cited by Metro Detroit News, Kierianna is accused of stabbing the employee, while Brianna is accused of taking part in the assault. Brianna is also accused of helping drive the pair away from the scene.
Court records show both sisters were charged with assault with intent to murder, assault with intent to do great bodily harm less than murder, and assault with a dangerous weapon.
The Detroit Police Department did not immediately respond to PEOPLE’s request for comment.
The sisters appeared in court on Monday, June 8, for an arraignment hearing. During that appearance, it was revealed that Brianna was nine months pregnant at the time of the alleged attack, according to Metro Detroit News and WDIV.
WDIV reported that Brianna gave birth just four days before the court hearing.
Defense attorneys for the sisters claimed in court that the restaurant worker threw items first. They also claimed the employee told the sisters she did not “give a f—” about the wrong order, according to WDIV.
Kierianna and Brianna both pleaded not guilty, according to Metro Detroit News.
Kierianna is being held on a $100,000 bond, while Brianna is being held on a $25,000 bond.
Hope they enjoy prison food.
