ST. CLAIR SHORES, Mich. (FOX 2) - A DoorDash driver is now facing assault charges after a St. Clair Shores restaurant owner was attacked on camera.
Daveon Jahmel Godbold, 20, of Eastpointe, was arraigned Tuesday on charges of robbery, resisting and obstructing, malicious destruction of property, aggravated assault and delivery/manufacture of marijuana. He was given a $25,000 personal bond.
The backstory:
According to police, Godbold went to Amigos Street Tacos at 22428 Greater Mack just after 7 p.m. Saturday and got into an argument with the owner. Police said that Godbold tried to grab a DoorDash order he was picking up, but the owner refused. This led to Godbold allegedly assaulting the owner.
Security video from the eatery showed a man who police say was Godbold jumping the counter and attacking the victim.
Godbold is also accused of damaging a window at the restaurant.
He was arrested during a traffic stop after the crime.
