NEWINGTON, Conn. (AP) — A Connecticut mother has posted bail after being charged with pulling a gun and threatening another woman at a Chuck E. Cheese’s restaurant.
Police say 30-year-old Tawana Bourne brandished a .380-caliber handgun and chambered a round during an argument at the children’s game and pizza restaurant in Newington on Monday night. Police say both women were at the restaurant with their children.
Restaurant workers called police, who charged Bourne with reckless endangerment, risk of injury to children, threatening and breach of peace. She was freed after posting $50,000 bail and was ordered to appear in New Britain Superior Court on Feb. 19.
Bourne declined to comment.
Chuck E. Cheese’s released a statement saying weapons are banned in its restaurants and managers are evaluating security.







Seriously -___- I stopped taking my son there when the one in Springfield was shot at anyway. This is what happens when ignorant people have kids. Guess what those kids are gonna grow up to do when they face conflicts in the future? Exactly what their loser mom did! Smh.
She was upset because there wasn’t enough mozzerella on her pizza plus one of the games ate her token. She snapped.
Was the gun legal? Was it hers? People have guns on the brain.
What is the world coming too.
so classy… what kind of role model does she think she is for her children?
Unreal!!!
there’s so many trashy people in this world it’s sad, you would think people would learn by the tragedy in newtown but I guess not!!
your at chuck e. cheese and you managed to post 50,000 in bail,hmmm,this is so very disturbing.
WOW, the pizza’s not that bad. Doreen, how the heck did she get $50,000 bail ? just says stupid comes in ALL financial statuses.
This douche bag needs a serious ***** slap. Stuck in a cell for couple then sent through anger management classes. Oh and maybe supervised visits with the kids. People like this give us responsible gun owners a bad name and I’m tired of these friggin idiots. Maybe she needs a good flogging. Hahahah
I can’T believe the ignorance of some people . . here honey hold mommy’S purse while i get my gloch the soda is flat
What a piece of s***!!!!!
Was it a legal gun and did she have a “right to carry” permit?
@teresa napoli,the article said she posted it,yet she was at a chuck e. cheese……
@teresa napoli,the article said she posted 50,000 bail,yet she and her children were at a chuck e. cheese…..
Her bail was set at $50,000, or 1,500,000 Chuck E. Cheese tickets
REALLY..would you have reported it if she pulled a knife ?
Woulda been a saving grace, wouldn’t have had to eat the pizza
They have signs stating NO WEAPONS ALLOWED. Typical example of not following the law.
She had to have a license to carry or she would have been held without bail. Also you only have to pay 10% of what the bail is, so $ 5,000 is a lot easier to come up with than $50,000. She used very poor judgment. Hopefully, she loses her license to carry and never is in possession of a gun again. Luckily no one was hurt!
