A Fort Walton Beach woman was arrested last week for beating up a pregnant woman over a beach towel.
Mary Riley, 45, was charged with aggravated battery for attacking Lauri Kortum Thursday behind El Matador Condominiums on Okaloosa Island.
Kortum and witnesses said Riley wanted the beach towel Kortum was sitting on, according to the arrest report from the Okaloosa County Sheriff’s Office.
Kortum said she would not return the towel, which belonged to someone else, and Riley attacked her.
A witness said Riley pulled two handfuls of hair from Kortum’s head.
When questioned, Riley admitted that she knew the victim was pregnant, and stated, "Ya, I knew she was pregnant," according to the report.
