Overview
- Prosecutors say a dispute over a wrong order at a Detroit restaurant on May 30 escalated into a physical chase behind the counter and a stabbing that sent the worker to surgery.
- Authorities charged sisters Brianna Long, 29, and Kierianna Long, 26, with multiple felonies including assault with intent to murder and assault with a dangerous weapon.
- Prosecutors allege Kierianna stabbed the roughly 23-year-old worker while the sisters threw cookware and allegedly attempted to douse the employee with hot grease.
- At arraignment Brianna, who was nine months pregnant at the time and gave birth four days before the hearing, pleaded not guilty while her lawyer said the worker provoked the incident.
- The judge set cash bonds of $25,000 for Brianna and $100,000 for Kierianna and required GPS monitoring if they post bond, and the case will move through further criminal proceedings where accounts will be tested.
