Prom Dress Drama: Teen Girls Brawl Over Gown at Georgia Gas Station
In a scene that could easily be mistaken for a scripted wrestling match, a group of teenage girls turned a Georgia gas station into a battleground over a prom dress, resulting in arrests and a viral video sensation. The ruckus unfolded on February 26 at a RaceTrac in Gwinnett County, about 30 miles from Atlanta, and has since captured the attention of social media users and news outlets alike.
The incident began when Morgan Flinchum attempted to purchase a prom dress from a former friend. After the pair retreated to the restroom for a fitting, a third girl, allegedly a friend of Flinchum, was caught scheming in the bathroom, seizing the opportunity to snatch the dress and make a run for it. It’s a classic case of “who needs enemies when you have friends like these?”
As the video—initially shared by Fox 5 Atlanta—reveals, chaos erupted outside as the seller chased the thief, only to be confronted by two accomplices, Leila DeJager and Kaylee George. What followed was an intense tug-of-war for the dress, culminating in the seller executing a surprisingly agile body slam on one of her attackers. This hair-raising moment prompted her to declare to the police that she was unable to breathe, making it clear that this was no ordinary scuffle.
The Gwinnett County Police stepped in, and while some of the girls fled the scene, the seller’s boyfriend managed to retrieve the dress. Ultimately, Kaylee George was charged with theft, while Flinchum and DeJager faced multiple charges, including theft and battery. The police also issued a timely reminder for those engaging in online transactions to meet at safe, monitored locations—a lesson learned the hard way for these teens.
This incident not only highlights the sometimes perilous world of online exchanges but also serves as a humorous reminder that prom season can bring out the best—and worst—in people. As the search for the perfect dress continues to inspire dramatic antics, one can only hope future transactions remain peaceful.
