Booze Blew A Fuse Over Long Line, Pulled Pistol
By Thom Watts·September 23, 2026
In Maryland, Tiffany Booze apparently turned a slow checkout line into a full-blown crime novel.
Deputies say Booze got steamed at a store in Waldorf when the line wasn’t moving fast enough. Another employee opened a register to speed things along, but before leaving, Booze allegedly clocked the original clerk right in the face.
Then came chapter two: Booze allegedly walked back in, flashed a blue-and-black handgun, and took off again before police arrived. Thankfully, no shots were fired.
Ms. Booze left behind a couple of very helpful clues: her wallet and cellphone. So when she returned to retrieve her stuff, deputies were waiting to add the bracelets.
That line may have been long, but the rap sheet is longer. She’s charged with first-degree assault, five weapons counts, and other offenses.
It's unclear what she was buying. If MS. BOOZE was buying BOOZE . . . the police did not provide that detail.
