Talk about the dog days of summer.
Page Six hears that Hamptons cops are investigating claims that a woman in her fifties bit a six-year-old child in a tussle to claim a free t-shirt at a concert.
Sources out East say the alleged incisive incident happened at the Tuesdays on Main Beach event in East Hampton last week.
It seems that organisers of the popular family-friendly free concert series use t-shirt cannons to fire the favors into the audience.
During last Tuesday’s event, headlined by 80s cover band Rubix Kube, a molar mole alleges: “A six-year-old kid grabs one of the t-shirts, but a 57-year-old woman battles him for the shirt and he prevails, but not before she bites him in the arm to get the upper hand.”
A second source said the child was treated by medics and that cops have a suspect in the matter.
The event, which is organized by the East Hampton Village Foundation and supports various local charities, is in its fourth year and is said to draw 2000 to 5000 people each week during its summer run.
“As the concert starts, patrons can enjoy swimming with the safety of lifeguards on duty and the ability to grab dinner right on the beach as the beach hut closes at 8pm when the concert concludes,” says the event’s site, “If you’re lucky, you may catch a limited-edition concert t-shirt for attending from the t-shirt cannon!”
Or, apparently, you may be mauled by a partially domesticated middle-aged lady.
Cops told us they’re not yet ready to release information about the matter.
