A routine family meal descended into chaos at a Texas Olive Garden when a mother-daughter duo launched a violent attack on staff and fellow diners, resulting in their dramatic arrest.
Cell phone footage captured the shocking moment Megan Davis, 42, and her daughter Ashlee Davis, 22, turned the popular Italian chain restaurant into a battleground after allegedly becoming aggressive when asked to settle their bill.
The Unfolding Chaos
According to police reports, the disturbance began when restaurant staff approached the Davis women about an outstanding payment. What started as a verbal confrontation quickly escalated into physical violence.
Witnesses described scenes of pandemonium as the pair allegedly began throwing punches at employees and other customers who attempted to intervene. The viral video shows chairs being overturned and personal belongings scattered across the floor as the altercation intensified.
Police Response and Arrests
Law enforcement officers arrived at the Lewisville location to find staff and patrons attempting to restrain the combative women. Body camera footage released by police shows the moment officers handcuffed the still-resisting pair.
Both women now face serious charges of assault, with additional charges potentially pending as the investigation continues. Restaurant management has confirmed they are fully cooperating with authorities and conducting their own internal review of the incident.
Aftermath and Community Reaction
The incident has sparked widespread discussion on social media, with many expressing shock at the level of violence displayed in a family restaurant setting. Local residents have described the Olive Garden as typically being a peaceful establishment, making the outburst even more surprising.
Legal experts suggest the Davis women could face significant penalties if convicted, given the multiple victims involved and the public nature of the assault.
