[NYPOST] A Maryland hairstylist allegedly assaulted a 15-year-old customer and dragged her across the shop floor when she attempted to walk out without paying her $150 bill, according to a report.
Jayla Cunningham, 18, was charged with second-degree assault on the minor following the incident inside the Prince George County Maryland hair salon earlier this month, court records viewed by The Post report.
Cunningham says she had just finished working on her client's hair, which included adding a weave to the girl, when it came time for the client to pay for the services, Fox 5 DC reported.
An argument broke out over the $150 payment, which the teen allegedly claimed she sent through Cash App, but Cunningham never received the payment.
As the young client began to leave the shop, the hairstylist grabbed her client's hoodie and dragged her back inside the building.
''She ran. Forget trash, she ran without paying me,'' Cunningham told the outlet.
Cunningham was captured on a security camera pulling the girl down a hallway before yanking her into a room next to a bag of trash.
The hairstylist then shouted at her client to stay on the floor while she left the room to grab scissors to undo the work she had done.
''Sit right here until somebody sends it. I''m not f—king playing. You just tried to f—king run. You lucky I ain't beat the s—t out you,'' Cunningham could be heard saying, according to the video obtained by the outlet.
The irate hairstylist disappeared down the hallway before quickly returning and staring down at the camera that captured the entire incident.
''I dragged her by her hood back into the salon until I could get paid or, you know, until the police come or until, you know, she let me take out the service, because it's like she literally ran outside, like she was about to be gone,'' she said.
The teen's mom claims her daughter sent the transaction to the wrong person, which sparked the miscommunication between both sides.
''It's just absolutely absurd. It's viral. It's all over the country,'' the disheartened mother told the outlet.
The teen's mom accused Cunningham of taking hold of her daughter's hair when she grabbed the hoodie, leaving the teen traumatized.

[Newsweek] A man was shot by U.S. Secret Service personnel early on Sunday, following an armed confrontation with law enforcement near the White House.
Officers were alerted on Saturday "to a potential threat involving a suicidal individual traveling from Indiana to Washington, D.C.," the agency said in a statement Sunday.
About midnight, officers discovered the suspect's parked vehicle near 17th and F Streets, near the White House perimeter, and later spotted an individual on foot who matched the suspect's description, the agency added.
"As officers approached, the individual brandished a firearm and an armed confrontation ensued, during which shots were fired by our personnel," the statement said.
"The suspect was transported to an area hospital and his condition is unknown. There were no reported injuries to Secret Service personnel."
The suspect's name, nor potential motive, had not been released by 8:50 a.m. ET.
D.C.'s Metropolitan Police Department told Newsweek that its Internal Affairs Division's Force Investigations Team is leading the probe and did not have any details to release shortly before 10 a.m.
WHY IT MATTERS
The incident highlights the ongoing security challenges in Washington, D.C., especially around critical government sites such as the White House. The armed confrontation with law enforcement near the president's official residence and workplace underscores the heightened threats faced by officials and law enforcement.

I don’t remember the Hampton as being susceptible to spontaneous simultaneous brush fire. It would have to be a group of folks in coordination like CA.

In America, it’s more to get leftists out to cause trouble along with pyromaniacs. The state governments apply for federal relief aid and then syphon the cash off. Much of this happens in CA. This East coast incident is an anomaly.

[GEO.TV] South Korean President Yoon Suk Yeol walked out of a detention centre in Seoul on Saturday after prosecutors decided not to appeal a court decision to cancel the impeached leader's arrest warrant on insurrection charges.
Yoon remains suspended from his duties, and his criminal and impeachment trials continue over his short-lived martial law imposition on December 3.
The Seoul Central District Court cancelled Yoon's arrest warrant on Friday, citing the timing of his indictment and "questions about the legality" of the investigation process.
"First of all, I would like to thank the Central District Court for their courage and determination in correcting the illegality," Yoon said in a statement.
His lawyers said the court decision "confirmed that the president's detainment was problematic in both procedural and substantive aspects," calling the ruling the "beginning of a journey to restore rule of law".
[MSN - Daily Wrap] Lithuania has officially withdrawn from the international convention banning cluster bombs. This decision is a response to Russia's actions involving using this weapon.
The Lithuanian Parliament decided to withdraw from the convention as early as July last year. At the beginning of fall, Lithuania submitted the necessary documents to the UN, which initiated six months after which the decision would become legally binding. This period ended on Thursday, March 6, at 12:00.
Cluster bombs are containers that can be launched from the air or ground. They contain several dozen to several hundred smaller charges that disperse over a large area, comparable to a soccer field (about 7,140 square metres).
Lithuania decided to leave the convention, arguing that Russia uses this weapon, and all means are necessary to deter a potential aggressor.
Lithuania is also considering withdrawing from the Ottawa Convention, which bans using anti-personnel mines. A decision on this matter is expected within a few months.
Attempted hit job by [a] recent graduate of Stony Brook University's Master's program in Journalism. Before beginning a career with the Daily Mail served as a Managing Editor at a local community newspaper on Long Island.
[Daily Mail, where America gets its news] The FBI's newest director has sparked an unprecedented firestorm within the bureau he was hand-picked to lead.
Kashyap 'Kash' Patel, 45, known for his close relationship with MAGA politics, has demanded sweeping loyalty tests and extensive vetting procedures for the agency's staff, indicating the FBI's latest leader may not fully trust the agency he was named to lead.
That’s exactly what he was brought in to do. Expressing shock is more than a bit disingenuous, a bad look for big, tough FBI types.
The FBI director, whose critics have branded him a conspiracy theorist,
…they aren’t conspiracy theories when they're proven conspiracy facts, O baby Daily Mail reporter…
also inquired about hiring his own private security detail not long after his Senate confirmation in February, The Wall Street Journal reported.
As director, Patel is automatically assigned a team of FBI agents tasked with ensuring his safety, however, his latest request suggests that he is not willing to place his life in the hands of his very own agents.
The former prosecutor also inquired about how to get a secure phone line directly to the Oval Office from both his FBI office in Washington D.C. and his home, according to the Journal.
Patel reportedly claimed he did not wish to go through the FBI landline in his office, but instead a direct line to his ally, President Donald Trump.
Under the usual chain of command, the FBI director would contact the president through the Attorney General, like all FBI directors have since J. Edgar Hoover in 1929.
The indirect line of contact was allegedly installed to help maintain distance and demonstrate independence from the White House.
Patel, however, is a loyal ally of the president, serving as a national security advisor in his first administration.
'Director Patel is aggressively working to deliver on removing criminals from our streets, restoring law and order, and ensuring agents have the resources they need to perform their duties effectively,' FBI spokesperson Ben Williamson said.
'We have absolutely zero interest in engaging with false leaks or distractions that undermine that mission,' he added.
The New York-native was among Trump's most controversial administration picks.
Patel, who was born in New York to Indian Gujarati immigrant parents, shockingly made it through the Senate vote even after every single Democratic senator, as well as two Republicans, voted against his confirmation.
Their reservation wasn't just that Patel had a complete lack of experience at the FBI, but overwhelming concerns from critics suggested that the newly-appointed federal agent is a conspiracy theorist.
In 2022, the FBI Director authored a children's picture book which pushed the claim that former President Joe Biden rigged the 2020 election against Trump.
Patel was also often known to label his political opposition and even the FBI as part of 'the deep state' - which refers to a body of people, typically influential members of government agencies or the military, believed to be involved in the secret manipulation or control of government policy - during his time serving as a commentator at The Epoch Times.
He has also expressed a sympathetic attitude toward the QAnon movement, which claims that the Democratic Party is a 'pedophilic cabal.'
Just last month, Patel was accused of spearheading the purge of senior FBI officials, even before his confirmation.
The Justice Department has also been trying to fire FBI agents who investigated Trump but has faced legal pushback, the Daily Beast reported.
Last week, Patel and Attorney General Pam Bondi, another well-known Trump ally, enraged Trump's supporters with a release of 'Epstein files' that offered no new information on the disgraced sex-offender.

Given what we know about the Bureau these days, that seems only prudent.

Loyalty tests, eh? When I worked at McDonald's, we called "doing what the boss wanted". Now that you mention it, that was a feature of every other job too. It sounds sinister if you call it a loyalty test, so delightfully Owellian.
[Daily Mail, where America gets its news] Elon Musk's DOGE has been granted access to a sensitive child support database by the Department of Health and Human Services.
The landmark move was approved by the HHS, now headed by Robert F. Kennedy Jr., despite protests from career employees within the department, according to the Washington Post.
The huge government database contains swaths of personal income data from Americans across the country, and it was initially created with the intention of enforcing child support payments.
An HHS official told the Post that DOGE agents requested 'read only' access to the database, and were required to take 'necessary trainings' before they were allowed into it.
The official said the Administration for Children and Families, which oversaw the database, 'supports DOGE’s efforts to improve efficiency and data quality to reduce waste, fraud, and abuse in federal programs.'
'ACF will continue to assist DOGE in efforts to strengthen the programs it runs,' the anonymous official said.
Insiders reportedly saw DOGE's access of the child support database as part of its efforts to crackdown on wasteful federal payments to Americans, with their attempts to access IRS data previously halted by federal law.
The child support database may offer similar information on tax records and federal benefits that could highlight duplicate or fraudulent payments that may have been previously missed by the separation of huge federal agencies.
According to HHS insiders who spoke with the Post, a career civil servant protested allowing DOGE agents into the child support database, but that person has since left the department.
Civil servants in multiple agencies have objected to DOGE's efforts to obtain sensitive government data since Donald Trump re-took the White House, amid fears the new department could overstep important safety guardrails.
DOGE was reportedly especially interested in accessing a component of the child support database known as the National Directory of New Hires, which shows hiring data nationwide.
The controversial new government agency has sparked backlash for its 'chainsaw approach' to cutting government spending, with critics claiming legitimate, needed government programs have been slashed alongside waste.
After being rebuffed by the IRS as some opponents argue DOGE may recklessly access sensitive data, the department claims accessing such databases is necessary to root out issues deep within the federal government.
As DOGE's access to the child support database was reported on Friday, Democrats urged the department to fully explain the move and reveal how many Americans 'have had their confidential information received or accessed.'
'It is essentially an end-run around the confidential taxpayer information protected by the IRS,' Congressman Richard Neal told the Post.
Neal, the top Democrat on the House Ways and Means Committee, wrote a letter to RFK Jr. and Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent urging the White House to lead with transparency.
'No one, including DOGE, should be rummaging around in the confidential information of private citizens at any agency where the protected information resides,' Neal added.
And yet, prior to DOGE so many did without the slightest acknowledgement, let alone protest, from Congressman Neal.
The widespread cuts pushed by Musk's DOGE have sparked protests in recent weeks, as opponents lament the mass firings across the federal government and slashing of support.
It appeared this week that Trump heard criticisms of Musk's slash-and-burn approach as he told his cabinet leaders that they alone are in charge of hiring and firing employees within their departments, not Musk.
'DOGE has been an incredible success, and now that we have my Cabinet in place, I have instructed the Secretaries and Leadership to work with DOGE on Cost Cutting measures and Staffing,' Trump wrote in a post to Truth Social.
The president abruptly assembled his Cabinet on Thursday amid rising scrutiny over how much power Musk wields over the U.S. government.
It appears Trump told his top leaders that they need to be more selective if they continue to conduct clear-outs of their workforce.
He said that instead of taking a 'hatchet' approach, secretaries should instead use a 'scalpel' for 'surgical' precision over who they dismiss.
The news from HHS comes just days after the agency controversially announced that the CDC will study the potential link between vaccines and autism.
Two sources told Reuters the agency is planning a large study into the long disproven connection.
However, it is unclear whether newly appointed health secretary RFK Jr., who has long been skeptical of vaccines, is involved in the planned study or how it would be carried out.
The bombshell move comes amid one of the largest measles outbreaks in US history, with more than 150 cases across the country and two deaths in Texas and New Mexico.
Experts believe the outbreak has been fueled by declining vaccination rates in parts of the US.
Kennedy, whose role includes authority over the CDC, has long sowed doubt over the safety of the measles, mumps and rubella (MMR) vaccine, along with Covid shots made by Pfizer and Moderna.
However, he did make a U-turn move earlier this week when he urged people to get the shot to prevent measles.
[FoxNews] After SpaceX's eighth suborbital flight test of its fully integrated Starship megarocket on Thursday ended in an explosion, MSNBC hosts dug into CEO Elon Musk, saying, "Go back to your day job and work that out."
One of the goals of the flight was to catch Starship's Super Heavy booster, one of two major components, using the "chopsticks" on the launch tower, which was completed successfully.
However, similar to its last flight test in January, its upper stage, once in space, started spinning uncontrollably before losing contact and breaking apart, sending debris plunging back to Earth.
Iterative debugging is his process. Once the plan is laid out, Mr. Musk needn’t hover over the shoulders of the scientists and engineers doing the work. But there are always ignorant carpers, who fortunately need not understand any of it to complain that it isn’t being done their way.
