Woman pulled sword from scabbard during argument at Pizza Hut

Police say a woman involved in an argument at a Louisville Pizza Hut raised the stakes considerably when she tried to pull a sword. It happened on Thursday night, shortly after 9 p.m. at the Pizza Hut near Dixie Hwy.

According to an arrest report, police were called to the restaurant after they received reports that 29-year-old Wynika Mason was "causing trouble." When they got there, she allegedly began yelling at the officers.



An employee told the officers that, shortly before they arrived, Mason began yelling at him and told him that she had a sword on her person. The employee said that Mason, "began to raise it out of the sheath" when her brother seized it from her and put it in their vehicle outside.

Police say Mason told them that she did indeed have a sword and it was still in the vehicle. Officers recovered the sword. Officers say customers and employees were both inside the Pizza Hut when the events occurred, and that the employees, "felt threatened by her behaviour." Mason was charged with disorderly conduct and menacing behaviour.
