Erica Mena apparently wasn’t just kicking and screaming during her arrest last weekend in Atlanta — she was allegedly biting too … not to mention dropping some fake baby news, so say cops and her lawyer.
The ‘Love & Hip Hop’ star was one of four people arrested Friday at a lounge there in town after police say all hell broke loose when they were asked to leave by the security — and according to the police report, obtained by TMZ, it was a lot uglier than what we all saw.
The doc lays out what APD officers say went down — and one of them describes a chaotic brawl he says he was trying to break up … and says EM was in the middle of it all.
According to the cop, Erica was fighting like hell … even brutalizing security guards as they tried to get her out of the facility. During the melee, the officer says one of the guards told him Erica had chomped down on his forearm … and she allegedly kicked another in the face!
The officer claims he took some licks from Erica as well … but after a lot of physical struggle, he was finally able to get her under control.
Another interesting tidbit — the officer in this report says Erica made clear she was pregnant. Unfortunately, that didn’t prevent her from getting busted … and her lawyer tells us she was fibbing.
Erica’s attorney, Drew Findling, tells TMZ … “On behalf of Erica Mena (who is not pregnant), we will immediately start investigating the events of August 25, 2023. It is clear that this was an incident between citizens, private security and off-duty police officers that was not properly handled or de-escalated.”
He continued, “We know this because the officer readily admits in his report that he punched a private citizen in the face 4 or 5 times and used unnecessary force against Erica as well. While Erica regrets some of the circumstances of that night, it is also important to understand the context and details of the incident so we will do our due diligence and review accordingly.”
As for the others who were hauled to jail — including Bambi Richardson and Zellswag, plus a mutual friend of theirs — APD says they were all trying to prevent officers from restraining Erica the entire time … which explains why they were booked for misdemeanor obstruction.
It’s still unclear what precipitated this whole thing … but it sure ended in a mess.
