(AP)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.
The hairstylist is being held in a Washington, Pennsylvania,
jail on $50,000 bond.
