Al Sharpton’s daughter Ashley Sharpton arrested after cops say she attacked cab driver

DN-

Rev. Al Sharpton’s daughter’s birthday celebration ended in handcuffs early Saturday after she attacked a cabbie in Midtown, police sources said.

Ashley Sharpton, 30, is facing charges of petty larceny and criminal possession of stolen property after she allegedly grabbed the keys from a cabbie on W. 48th and Ninth Ave., then shoved and punched the cab driver when he demanded them back.

“She told me it didn’t happen the way they said it happened but I can’t speak for a 30-year-old woman,” Rev. Al Sharpton told the Daily News. His daughter couldn’t be immediately reached for comment.

The clash began just before 1 a.m. on W. 48th St. and Ninth Ave. when Sharpton and three pals jumped into a cab but all gave the cab driver different destinations.

Annoyed, the confused cabbie stopped his car until his passengers could figure out where they were going.

That’s when Sharpton, who was sitting in the front passenger seat, snatched his keys from the ignition, according to cops. She jumped out of the car and threw the keys – which the cabbie didn’t see.

The cab driver approached her, demanding his keys back, when she began shoving him, according to police sources.

Sharpton then ran off. Cops caught up with her about two hours later on W. 46th St. and took her into custody.

  1. She blew a once in a lifetime chance. She should have claimed the cabby kidnapped her, drove her to a secluded location where the cabby and 4 members of the P.D. gang raped her for days and on the way back the cabby pick up some other people so as to avoid a dead run and this was her heroic bid to escape to freedom.

    That way her dad would not be so standoffish. Her dad would be mobilizing the local mob, marching on the court house while burning any Jewish owned stores along the way. If nothing else her minor problems would be swept away but with any luck and a possible guest appearance from the long legged MacDaddy of racial division Obama she could when a 16 figure lawsuit. After Obama’s and her father’s cut she might have enough to buy a used 2006 VW Bug with low miles but- and this is the important thing to remember- you play the cards you are dealt!

  2. There is a major flaw in this story:

    “The cab driver approached her, demanding his keys back, when she began shoving him, according to police sources.

    Sharpton then ran off.”

    Her defense attorney will just enter her photo into evidence as proof that she has never, in fact, run anywhere.

  3. Actually it wasn’t the keys, it was a Key Lime Pie.
    The cabbie was bringing one home to the Mrs. and Sharpton wanted it.
    Cabbie said no. Sharpton, denied food, snatched it like a football and ran off, making surprising time for a girl of her girth.

  4. In their world, it ain’t a party ’til someone breaks somethin or goes to jail.

    Is she the one who tripped on pavement (that she prolly broke) in NYC, sued & settled for 30k?

  5. What a jerk. The poor guy is barely scraping by then she interferes with his ability to earn money by throwing his keys into the dark. For what? What did he do to her? Nothing. Like I said – she’s a jerk.
