The Unkindest Cut

I got my haircut yesterday, but I was smart enough not to complain about the results:

She thought she was getting a bad haircut, but police in southwestern Pennsylvania say when Lauren Newton complained, she got a bullet in the back.

Newton's hairstylist is now facing charges of aggravated assault and reckless endangerment.

Police say the two had been arguing yesterday about the style of the cut when the hairstylist left the room and returned with a gun. Newton and her sister tried to flee after the stylist fired a shot into the ceiling, but police say that's when a second shot hit Newton in the lower back.

She was taken to a Pittsburgh hospital for treatment. Her injuries are not considered to be life-threatening.

If I were Ms. Newton, I wouldn't go back.
