Honey Bunches of Weevils?
posted (April 3, 2019)

A 27 year old mother of 4 has been charged with harm for attacking a Chinese grocer in Tai Kong store in Cayo. But there is one heck of a back story to it. 

I all happened on Monday in San Ignacio at Tai Kong Store on Joe Andrews Drive.  

As you can see in the cell phone video that she captured, Khandie Young went to the store to buy a box of Honey Bunches of Oats. She returned shortly after because she found weevils crawling inside and all over the cereal bag. Young demanded that the store owner replace the box of cereal and be reimbursed the $20 she had to pay for a cab to go back to the store. The grocer was not willing to pay her the $20 so Young went to open the other boxes of cereal to inspect them but most of them had the bugs in them. Well this led to the confrontation at the counter. The Chinese grocer saw Young was recording and then snatched her phone from her and Young sprang up and stoned the Chinese lady with a calculator. Well at the end of it Young was charged with harm and damage to property and according to Young the grocer was charged with common assault.

Young claims this is not the first time she has encountered this type of weevil infestation in the same store.  She says that she was humiliated in front of her children who were crying and she missed 2 days of work because of the charges.  She said she was held against her will as they tried to force her to delete the video.. Â
