Bikini barista throws boiling water on cross-dressing flasher
11:23 PM PDT on Saturday, August 30, 2008
PARKLAND, Wash. -- A Parkland barista was accused of throwing a cup of boiling water at a man who deputies said had repeatedly flashed the woman.
The woman wears a bikini while she serves coffee at "Java Girls."
Investigators say the man was wearing women's underwear and had come to the stand harassing baristas at least three times.
A surveillance camera at the coffee stand recorded the barista throwing the hot water at the man.
Pierce County deputies said they have a person of interest they are trying to question about the incident.
Deputies have responded to similar calls this summer. At the same time, coffee stands featuring bikini-clad baristas have become more common.
"I can't say there's a direct correlation between these places and these incidents," said Pierce County Det. Jerry Bates, "But it's something we're watching for out there."
