A fight between two Honda of America Manufacturing associates that occurred Tuesday, Sept. 24, in the break room at the East Liberty plant resulted in the arrest of the individuals involved.
Fatina Martin 44, of Bellefontaine, was charged with assault following the confrontation and was lodged in the Logan County Jail.
Deputies from the Logan County Sheriff’s Office were dispatched around 11:35 a.m. to the manufacturing plant at 11000 State Route 347 on a report of an assault. The incident reportedly began when Martin told another Honda associate not to sit with the victim because she was two-faced.
A verbal argument ensued which reportedly resulted in Martin claiming that was her last day at work anyway and then eventually Martin slapped the victim multiple times with an open hand.
Martin said the victim got in her face first and she pushed her away. More words were exchanged and Martin said the victim brought up her race and she lost control of her and smacked her.
