Woman arrested for punching pregnant co-worker

Staff report

GAINESVILLE, Fla. – Keyly Ninoska Garcia-Soazo, 39, was arrested yesterday and charged with aggravated battery on a pregnant woman after allegedly punching a co-worker.

At about 5:30 p.m. on September 13, an Alachua County Sheriff’s Deputy responded to a call about a battery at La Fiesta Mexican Restaurant (9513 NW 39th Avenue). The victim, who is about six months pregnant, reportedly said she and Garcia-Soazo, who both work at the restaurant, had argued over property that Garcia-Soazo had left at the restaurant; she said Garcia-Soazo accused her of throwing away her belongings.

The victim said that she was standing in a doorway as they argued, and Garcia-Soazo walked by and punched her in the face and in the shoulder.

A manager of the restaurant reportedly provided video of the incident, and the deputy reported that Garcia-Soazo walked by the victim and appeared to punch the victim in the face; the victim immediately grabbed her face, and Garcia-Soazo left the restaurant.

Post Miranda, Garcia-Soazo (also spelled Suazo in one document) reportedly said she knows the victim is pregnant and that the victim is “always trying to play the victim.” She denied hitting the victim.

Garcia-Soazo, who was identified with her Honduran ID card, has no local criminal history and was released on her own recognizance.

  • Check the green card if I don’t have one the port in back to their country, especially the pregnant one. Her child will become an automatic citizen if its born here. We don’t need more People on welfare

  • She looks like she came straight out of a Honduran prison. Keep your pet secure in case she gets hungry.

    • In Springfield, they were eating the dogs 🐕, they were eating the cats 🐈, they were eating the pets‼️

      • The climate change refugees Poe wants to bring here better not eat my cat & dog!

        It may be a delicacy in their country, but we have so many food giveaways here, they need to find something else to eat!

        We already have too many vagrants & panhandlers at Grace…
        Any more and they might start eating us! 😳

  • Oh please! This lady is probably a lovely person and someone who is probably supporting me even though she can’t vote. Under my administration she will become a citizen. Dr Prizzia has stated that this is a person who should not be in our prison system. Can I count on your support.

    • I find nothing more annoying that having to read your comments. Either your narratives pretending to be mayor or this mess lol. It really serves zero purpose and adds nothing constructive to the conversation – and I’m a trump supporter. Would be curious to know your real name and how you interact with the public

      • I find your comment to be quite rude. My comments are serious and full of common sense wisdom. My real name is for all to know. Will you stand with Dr Prizzia and I????

        • Kamala: I love 💕 your comments and you will get my continued support!

          Laura’s real name is “Karen” and you know how to push her & Jazz’s buttons!🤪

          • Thank you so much Shaquonda. Laura is simply a problem child. If she really wants to reach out to me I will consider lunch the next time I visit Dr Prizzia.

      • Good thing about our country you’re not forced to read anything you don’t have to get on here if you don’t like our comments and how we feel about stuff

  • There’s a reason *some* illegals flee their homelands. And it’s not victimhood, but the opposite. That’s why we have vetted work visas.

  • Honduran ID =ILLEGAL ALIEN. Thanks to Harvey Wards and the Democrat politicians’ “Welcoming” city.

  • She is so gainesville with the booger catcher in her nose and the nail in her eyebrow. Another trespasser that needs to be returned.
