Catfight in the food court at the mall.
A girl attacked two security guards in the food court at
West Valley Mall, 3200 Naglee Road,
onlookers said after they’d alerted police at 8:04 p.m. Friday. The guards
pepper-sprayed the girl to fend her off, and police sent two units to the mall
to control the large crowd that formed to watch the fight.
An ambulance arrived to wash spray out of the girl’s eyes.
An hour later, the girl’s mom called police to say that she wanted to press
charges against mall security and also against a girl, who she said had started
the fight by stealing her daughter’s clothes.
