WEST WINDSOR - A fight between two women at a Chuck E. Cheese location began over skee ball and ended with assault charges, police said.
A woman and her 2-year-old son were near the skee ball machines at the Nassau Park Boulevard location on Dec. 27 around 7 p.m. when another woman playing skee ball pushed her boy, she later told police.
The mother aggressively confronted the other woman. Words were exchanged. The mother pushed the woman, who fell on her back onto a skee ball machine, police said.
The woman got up and the two continued to fight until a family member and Chuck E. Cheese staff broke it up, police said.
The woman who fell into the Skee Ball machine told police that she was playing skee ball with her own 2-year-old son when the other woman's boy twice came over and tried to steal her son's skee balls. She denied pushing the woman's son, but said when the boy came over a third time, she pulled her own boy away and closer to her, police said.
The woman, a 29-year-old from Monmouth Junction, refused medical attention for a minor abrasion, police said.
The woman who instigated the fight had a $500 outstanding warrant out of Trenton. She was arrested and charged with simple assault and released with a court date, police said.
