Oakland Mall Auntie Anne's Offers Freebie in Wake of Fight
To keep customers 'in the loop' following a well-publicized fight in Troy on March 30, Auntie Anne's is taking action.
News of a fight at Auntie Anne's in the Oakland Mall on March 30 did not sit well with the company, who will offer customers free pretzel dip on Friday to mend fences.
Troy Police said that two women from Eastpointe, 19 and 22-years-old respectively, that an argument ensued with the store's staff following a mistaken order, at about 6:42 p.m., and that an employee threw nacho cheese dip on their faces and chests.
The women attempted to climb over the counter and a scuffle ensued; a machine was knocked over and broken. The 22-year-old sustained a minor injury.
