CELEBRATING MOTHERS DAY IN THE HOOD

East Point police on Monday identified four people seen throwing plates, carts and punches in video of a Mother’s Day brawl that went viral.

Devecc Billingslea, 26, Zacarli Dalcoe, 25, Willis Jumario Hall, 26, and Demonte Harrison, 21, were cited for disorderly conduct in connection with the May 8 fight at Kiku Japanese Steakhouse and Sushi Bar on Marketplace Boulevard, East Point police Capt. Cliff Chandler said.

Customers captured video of the chaos on their cellphones.

According to a police report obtained by The Atlanta Journal-Constitution, Harrison, a busboy at the restaurant, was cleaning tables when a woman berated him for smiling. Harrison told the woman it was his job to smile.

That’s when Hall, the woman’s brother, got up and punched Harrison in his face, police said. Other people joined the fight, but the report does not identify them by name. Billingslea and Dalcoe are relatives of Hall, East Point police Capt. R.C. Popham told The AJC.

Attorney Charles Webb is representing Hall, Billingslea and Dalcoe. He said cellphone footage of the melee does not tell the whole story.

Owner Charlie Son told Channel 2 Action News he lost about $5,000 in business after people got up during the brawl and left without paying.

“The investigation into this incident is ongoing and arrangements are being made for the aforementioned individuals” to pick up their citations, Chandler said.

Hall, Billingslea and Dalcoe are scheduled to appear in court on July 5.

Replace the setting with trees and bushes and it would look just like a Mutual of Omaha Wild Kingdom video. Waych the one in the top right corner dancing a little jig while she films it. Fuckin’ savages!

Of course it doesn’t. It totally misses the part where they were in the midst of an in depth discussion of Post-Modernist literary styles and their influence on political theory in the Clintonian era. Duh.

Entertaining the Russians as we fall into anarchy. They have to be laughing.

I’ve seen the same thing happen when a farmer hauled a truck load of them to his field to pick beans. I asked why he didn’t try to stop it and he said he is paying them by the basket load not the hour so if they want to act like baboons that’s their problem. But they were tearing up his field but the Mexicans were working like machines.

I just read something, written by some freak, that said if a white person smiles at black person, they’re being racist.
Did they run out of flags to pull down off moving semis?

It must be a fake, that is not how they are portrayed in TV commercials and shows.

Not as good as the footage from McDonald where they went full chimp and threw heavy metal chairs at each other. These peeps need more practice IMO.

The video was interesting because I was listening to A Flock of Seagulls at the same time. YMMV.
