Overview
- Bomze was arrested Tuesday in East Hampton on charges of third-degree assault and endangering the welfare of a child, then released with an appearance ticket.
- An arrest report says a t-shirt toss at the Tuesdays at Main Beach concert turned chaotic as a woman allegedly punched and kicked attendees and bit a girl’s arm, breaking the skin.
- The child’s parents called 911, officers searched the venue that night, and police later identified Bomze and made the arrest.
- Her attorney says the 75-year-old grandmother categorically denies biting anyone, claims she was knocked down and injured in the scramble, and reported safety concerns to organizers and police.
- The East Hampton Village Foundation describes the series as a long-running family event, condemns the alleged incident, and, according to the defense, apologized and discussed safety improvements.
