A woman faces multiple charges are she allegedly assaulted an off-duty Pittsburgh Police detective at a bar in Brookline on Saturday night.
Police say 44-year-old Angie Hindman attacked Michelle McHenry at the Brook Line & Sinker bar. McKenry is currently investigating Hindman's son in a separate case.
The Post-Gazette says a criminal complaint explains that Hindman "punched and strangled Detective McHenry . . . shouting, ""You're not going to come after my son, you're not going to say [expletive] about my son, he didn't do nothing."
McHenry was then dragged outside while Hindman continued to punch and choke the off-duty officer yelling "my son didn't do nothing."
Police who arrived on the scene say that McHenry suffered "severe swelling" along with marks that showed she was strangled.
Two others involved in the fight, Matthew Hindman and Brianna Holland were arrest and charged with simple assault and disorderly conduct.
Hindman is charged with aggravated assault, strangulation and retaliation against witness or victim.
Hindman was also treated at a local hospital after McHenry bit her during the altercation before being transported to Allegheny County Jail.
A preliminary hearing is scheduled for November 18.
