DEER PARK, Texas — A woman who headbutted another shopper during a fight at a Walmart has been charged with assault, police confirmed Thursday.

The assault took place Feb. 7. Cellphone video of the fight shows Jessica Albitz head butt Alice Keener, which set off a brawl between the two women.

Police said Keener originally declined to press charges, but an evaluation by a dentist determined that the headbutt knocked two of her front teeth loose.

Keener contacted Deer Park police Feb. 11 to alert them she would like to press charges. Keener was able to provide medical records to police that proved her claims.

Police said they plan to file a warrant for Albitz's arrest in the coming days.
