Family members and the Southern California community are devastated by the recent news of a 13-year-old girl being violently beaten by an adult woman inside a Southern California McDonald’s on September 6. The entire incident was recorded on video and has sparked outrage from the community.
Kassidy Jones and her friends had stopped at McDonald’s while returning from school. As Jones was walking out of the bathroom, a woman stared at her with an extreme amount of rage. Jones reported the woman saying, “What the f**k are y’all looking at? I fight kids. I fight you.” She then lunged at Jones and began attacking her unprovoked, pulling her hair and hitting her repeatedly. One man stepped in to pull the assailant away, but not before significant damage was done.
Jones’ mother, Angelina Gray, told ABC 7 that her daughter continues to struggle emotionally and physically due to the fight. She said, “My daughter is hurting emotionally. She can’t sleep at night. She’s bruised… She doesn’t want to go to school because she’s tired of the kids and everybody asking her what happened and making fun of her. It wasn’t a fight, it was a beating.”
The community has called for the woman seen on video to turn herself in and Gray has pleaded for her to do the right thing. She has also asked for the McDonald’s managers to be charged for not stopping the beating on its premises. Unfortunately, these types of disturbing incidents of young girls being assaulted by grown adults have been on the rise.
In a Lawndale Chicago neighborhood, an 11-year-old girl was physically assaulted and verbally berated by two women. Trinity Washington was hit with bottles, punched, and verbally abused by the two adult women who had noticed her during a Mexican Independence Day celebration. Washington had to undergo surgery for her right eye and orbital bones due to the extensive injuries inflicted by the women.
Los Angeles police are still searching for the woman seen in the Southern California incident and are planning to charge her with child abuse and battery once she is apprehended. The Chicago incident is still currently being investigated as well. It is heartbreaking to witness the increase in violence against young girls and we can only hope that justice will be served.
