Three women are being sought after authorities say they ransacked a Wendy’s drive-thru in Mercer County and attempted to assault employees during an early morning disturbance.
According to the Ewing Police Department, officers responded to the Wendy’s on Olden Avenue in Ewing at approximately 2:57 a.m. Saturday following reports of disorderly customers who allegedly broke a drive-thru window.
Investigators identified the suspects as Saniyah Brittingham, 18, and Leah Williford-Stevens, 19, both of Trenton. Each has been charged with burglary, criminal mischief, and unlawful possession of a weapon.
Honesty Harrison, 23, also of Trenton, was charged with burglary and criminal mischief.
Police said the three women damaged property and attempted to assault employees during the incident.
Video shared on social media shows the women reaching through the broken drive-thru window, grabbing drinks and other items, and throwing them at employees.
At one point, employees appear to throw items back, including what looked like ice.
As of Friday afternoon, all three suspects had not yet been taken into custody. Authorities are continuing their investigation.
The charges are accusations, and the defendants are presumed innocent unless and until proven guilty in a court of law.
