The Knight family must be the J.G. Wentworth of crab legs, as they made a payment for a long evening of unlimited crab legs, but they needed crab legs now.
According to Fox 61, the Connecticut couple was arrested Saturday night after getting into a “physical altercation” with a 21-year-old customer at the Royal Buffet in Manchester over all you can eat crab legs.
Police said the argument over crab legs at the buffet table turned physical when Clifford Knight punched the 21-year-old man in the face, cutting his lip and breaking a tooth in the process. The victim’s mother then stepped in and used pepper spray to get Knight away from her son.
Both Clifford and his wife Lataya Knight were arrested for disorderly conduct. Clifford was also hit with a charge of third-degree assault while Lataya is also facing a charge of…wait for it…threatening.
While the 21-year-old man did lose his tooth in the scuffle, the real victims here are the rest of the Royal Buffet customers who were forced to leave after fire officials decided to close the restaurant to “check out the air” because pepper spray was used.
There, are you happy, Clifford Knight? Now nobody gets crab legs.
