Ohio

VERNON A stripper who became angry that a patron was taking pictures of her while she was dancing was arrested early Monday after she smashed a beer mug on a man's head, police said.

Teonna Jean Rogers, 28, of Clark Street in Hartford was charged with third-degree assault and breach of peace, police said.

The assault happened shortly after 1 a.m. at the Sweethearts Gentleman's Café, 65 Windsor Avenue, police said. Rogers became upset when she saw a customer taking pictures of her while she was on stage. She began yelling, they said.

She grabbed a beer mug and smashed it on a patron's head — although the victim of the assault was not the man who had been taking her picture with a cell phone camera, Officer Dan Champagne said.

The victim had a bleeding head wound, but did not want to go to the hospital.

Rogers was released on a promise to appear in court on April 5.
