After a St. Paul woman was cut off at a Little Canada bar, she went home and grabbed her pink stun gun, authorities say.
Holding the device in one hand and pepper spray in the other, Tiffany Marie Churchill returned to the Hoggsbreath on Rice Street a short time later and began chasing the bar’s security guards, according to legal documents.
At some point during her pursuit, the 30-year-old woman tripped and fell, prompting security personnel to jump on top of her and detain her, court records say.
Churchill was charged via warrant Monday in Ramsey County District Court with unlawful use of a stun gun and fifth-degree assault for the Oct. 28 incident, according to the criminal complaint.
Churchill also is accused of biting a security guard during the altercation, which started after a bouncer cut Churchill off from more alcohol at the establishment because she seemed impaired, the complaint said.
She was allowed to stay at the bar but an X written on her hand prevented bartenders from serving her.
Irate, she left to get her stun gun and pepper-spray, authorities say.
No attorney was listed for her in court records, and she could not be reached for comment.
Churchill’s criminal history includes convictions for drunken driving, fourth-degree burglary, fourth-degree assault, first-degree criminal damage to property and disorderly conduct.
She is scheduled to appear in court on the charges Jan. 9.
