According to police, at 2;30 a.m. on June 15, an unknown woman got into an argument with another woman inside Bel Aire Diner, located at 31-91 21st St. The fight turned physical, with one woman throwing a glass container at the other.
Law enforcement sources said a 34-year-old employee was struck in the face by the container, causing a laceration, pain and bleeding.
