Charges were dropped recently against two women arrested in an April incident at the nightspot Roscoe’s, 3356 N. Halsted.
Jessica Crosswhite, who allegedly assaulted a bouncer after being asked to leave the bar April 22, was charged with one count of battery; Elizabeth Richards, alleged to have attempted to block the police car carrying Crosswhite, was charged with one count of disorderly conduct. Their trial was slated to begin June 16.
According to spokesman Andy Conklin from the Cook County State’s Attorney’s Office, the charges were dropped when the complaining witness failed to show up for a May 13 court date.
