Georgia Chicken Stand Customers Punch Owner and Her Daughter

Surveillance video shows a man punch the teenage girl before the couple flees

Police are looking for a couple who were caught on surveillance video attacking the owner of a restaurant and her 15-year-old daughter because they said their chicken was cold, authorities said.

Jeanette Norris, owner of the Qwik Chick takeout stand in the southeast Georgia town of Baxley, said she and her daughter were punched by customers Thursday.

Baxley police are looking for Latasha and Nathaniel Smith on charges of aggravated battery and cruelty to children.

Latasha Smith complained about her chicken being cold, and remained agitated after she refunded her money, Norris told WTOC-TV. Norris said she went outside to tell Smith that she had called police and Smith began hitting and slapping her, breaking Norris' nose.
