Starbucks employees are being hailed as “heroes” after dealing with a brawl which broke out at a downtown Chicago location this weekend.

According to police, when a barista set down a Skinny Vanilla Latte for “Chloe”, 17 women charged the counter. One of the women started hitting another with her purse while a second deployed mace from a pink container disguised as a tube of lipstick.

A witness said “there were people on the floor. This one woman was sprawled out on a table crying… there were a lot of tears.”

Some witnesses said they feared for their lives.

Amber Jones said “I’m just glad I was alone. I usually come here with my friend Chloe and she always order a Skinny Vanilla Latte.”

The staff at the downtown Chicago Starbucks are being hailed as heroes after they were able to keep the women from killing one another.

Chicago Police Chief Garry McCarthy declined our request for comment.
