Spears was on a late night snack run at a Pita Pit when someone attacked her friend by throwing a bottle. She pulled her companion to safety before picking up a bread knife and brandishing the blade to break up the fight.

The singer's acquaintance declined to press charges, so no arrests were made. Spears celebrated friend Brandi Smith-Mitchell's birthday earlier in the evening, but made no mention of the incident on social media.

Spears is the younger sister of pop star Britney Spears. The actress came to fame as Zoey Brooks on Nickelodeon series Zoey 101, and later pursued a career in music. She married James Watson in March, and has a 6-year-old daughter, Maddie, by ex-fiancé Casey Aldridge.
