The Lipstick Bounty Hunters is an all-female bounty hunting team from Long Beach, Calif., according to the group's official website. The group, which is owned by Teresa Golt, has an internet reality TV show and has been featured on local CBS affiliate KTLA as well as on national news. The group has reportedly captured some of the most dangerous fugitives in California, according to their website. However, the group has come under fire recently after a California man said he plans to file a multi-million dollar lawsuit after the group allegedly severely injured him during a confrontation in March 2013, CBS Los Angeles reports. Daniel Duvall, 35, says that the women of the Lipstick Bounty Hunters tracked him down at an Arby's restaurant in Huntington Beach because he failed to pay $4,000 he owed a bail bonds company. Duvall told the station that the women hit him with a stun gun, pepper-sprayed him, and shot him with rubber bullets. The women, who videotaped the incident and posted it online, claim they had the right to use force in apprehending Duvall. The women said they're not hiring an attorney and will beat the accusations.
