Police: Woman Assaults Bouncer, Cops Using Football And Wrestling Moves
SOUTH SIDE (KDKA) - A Washington County woman was arrested for allegedly assaulting a club bouncer and Pittsburgh Police officers.
According to police, Danae Blaze, 26, initially tried to cut in line to get into Mario's on the South Side late Saturday night.
The bouncer saw her and told her to go to the back of the line. When she said no, the bouncer realized that she was too drunk to enter the establishment at all.
At that time, Blaze said she wasn't going to leave.
According to the criminal complaint, the woman got into a three-point stance like a football player and charged the bouncer with a shoulder block. When that didn't work, she grabbed his legs and tried to execute a wrestling takedown.
The bouncer blocked her, the two started to wrestle and he shoved her from the front door.
Blaze reportedly fell at the feet of two Pittsburgh Police officers, who were on-duty outside of the East Carson Street bar.

Police were able to arrest her, but she reportedly kicked, hit and screamed the whole way into the police vehicle.
She was taken to the Allegheny County Jail, where she numerous charges including five felony counts of assault.
