A Pennsylvania woman said she and her sister-in-law were beaten by a group of teenagers all because she told them to quiet down during a movie.
Cindy Santamaria-Williams, of Stroudsburg, Pennsylvania is covered in bruises and has a broken eye socket following the alleged attack on Easter Sunday.
Santamaria-Williams tearfully told WPXI that she shushed three girls in the dark theater during Fast and Furious 7 because they were cursing loudly.
Santamaria-Williams claims the unidentified teens waited for her outside the theater where they pummeled her.
Santamaria-Williams said they declared, ‘When one swings, we all swing.’
‘They immediately jumped on me and knocked me to the ground, punched me in the face,’ Williams said.
Police are on the hunt for the teenagers and said that they will face assault charges if caught.
Police said they are using mall surveillance to try and identify the attackers. Santamaria-Williams said she would remember the girls’ faces without difficulty.
‘They were in my face. Their face is in my head. If I see them again or in a line up, I know exactly who they are,’ Santamaria-Williams said.
Santamaria’s sister-in-law was also injured but she has not been identified and the extent of her injuries is unknown at this time.
Police expressed their condolences and said they are committed to finding the suspects.
‘When you go to the movies, you don’t need to be at risk to have your family endangered, and we’re talking about even Easter Sunday, you know, to come out and be engaged in this,’ said Stroud Area Regional Police Chief William Parrish.
Our society is quickly devolving into a cesspool of violence and hatred. You see it strongest in the young who seem to have no morals, ethics, empathy or conscience. They have learned in a Progressive society that all that matters is themselves and that if they hurt someone it is not their fault. No one should have to fear for their safety or their lives when they go to the movies. Sadly, I think most of America is in fear anymore as packs of these savages freely roam our streets now.
