An 18-year-old woman who was allegedly involved in the fatal shooting of a 24-year-old man who was standing too close to her in a Dunkin' Donuts has been arrested by police in the Bronx, New York, according to a report.
Police say Santiana Rodriguez got into a dispute with Jamaican immigrant Stephaun Stuart, claiming he was "disrespecting her" inside the restaurant, NBC New York reports.
The incident happened in March around 1:30 PM at the Dunkin' Donuts located on East Gun Hill Road in Williamsbridge. Stuart and a friend exited the business before Rodriguez, of Brooklyn, followed them and caught up near Holland Avenue and East 212th Street, according to NBC News.
