On December 26, 2020, Grammy-winning trumpet player Keyon Harrold and his 14-year-old son were headed down from their room at the Arlo Soho hotel to have brunch. Then, out of nowhere, they were accosted by 22-year-old Miya Ponsetto, who accused Mr. Harrold's son of stealing her phone. As Mr. Harrold recorded on video, the hotel manager attempted to "settle the situation" by asking the boy to prove the phone was actually his and, when Mr. Harrold intervened and refused, Ms. Ponsetto chased them down and tackled his son from behind.
