A jury found no probable cause to charge Dymaond Canada and her girlfriend Donae Douglas over allegedly hurting the employee, who they say, escalated the situation by insulting them.
Two women will not face charges for allegedly hurting a Midas employee with a stiletto over the payment of an oil change with a Groupon in May.It was an attention-grabbing headline. Two women were accused of beating an employee while getting their car oil changed. Now, a grand jury has ruled there isn't enough evidence to pursue the charges, and the women at the center of the story claim they are the victims.
"'Oh, since you want to be a man, why don't you just change it yourself,'" Douglas said of the encounter. The women said they turned around and got in their car to drive away, but he started kicking the car.The two women claim they could not pull out of the lot due to traffic. That's when Canada reportedly got out to calm him, but he punched her in the face and put Douglas in a chokehold."Every time he pushed her, he said, 'You want to be a man? Fight me like a man,'" Canada said.
"We never laid a hand on him. It was all force against us, and we overly explained this to them," Canada said.The case went to a grand jury that determined a no-bill, a decision that means there's no probable cause.While happy with that outcome, the women say they should never have been arrested.
