An argument between a customer and a manager broke out at 5:15 p.m. April 1 at the Campustown Dollar Tree.

Police were notified that an unknown female wearing a tutu knocked over a display in the store and was causing a scene.

She said she was arguing with the manager because the manager would not blow up a balloon that her sister brought into the store using the store’s helium. When the female approached the store employees, the manager was aggressive toward her.

No charges were filed.
