Posted

A multiple-person altercation at a house on Loretta Street in Inwood resulted in the arrest of two women and one man at 11 p.m., on April 12.

The squabble erupted after Ashanti Eskarge, 21, allegedly punched another woman, 19, in the face and cut the woman’s lower lip, police said. The punch ignited an argument between three other women, 37, 19 and 16, and Destiny Rodriquez, 19, who also lives on Loretta Street, according to Nassau police.

The three women were inside their house when Rodriquez and an unidentified man allegedly showered pepper spray through the home’s open windows, which injured all three women, police said.

A large group of people gathered around the house and began to yell as the unidentified man fled on foot, according to police.

Destiny Rodriquez was sitting in the back of a police car when Fahyim Rodriquez directed the words “knock them out,” to the officers, police said. He was then arrested. Shawanda Eskarge allegedly jumped on the officer’s back trying to intervene in Fayhim’s arrest. She was then arrested.

Destiny Rodriquez is charged with three counts of assault and criminal possession of a weapon.

Fahyim Rodriquez, 30, of Langdon Boulevard, Lakeview, was charged with obstructing governmental administration and resisting arrest.

Arraigned at First District Court in Hempstead on April 13, both  were issued summonses. As of press time, no further information was available.

Shawanda Eskarge, 36, of 2nd Avenue, Garden City Park, is charged with obstructing governmental administration and was issued an appearance ticket. Her next court date is April 27 at First District Court in Hempstead.
