A Facebook user shared CCTV footage of an incident at a local establishment showing a couple physically assaulting a young girl who accidentally collided with their child while playing. The establishment has since banned the parents, stating that their behaviour was unacceptable.
The incident occurred yesterday, February 9, when the couple’s child was accidentally bumped by a young girl at a playground. Despite the girl attempting to help the child back up, the parents reacted violently. The mother hit the girl on the back, while the father kicked her. Shocked by the attack, the girl immediately apologised and left the scene.
The establishment’s post expressed disappointment with the couple’s actions, emphasising that the girl did not intend to cause harm and was already apologetic. The post also mentioned that the incident had been reported to the girl’s parents, suggesting that the couple might face repercussions.
The establishment reiterated its commitment to maintaining a safe environment and stated they would not tolerate such behaviour from customers.
The shared post generated significant online discussion, with many users criticising the couple’s actions. The incident prompted widespread sharing of the video and extensive conversations about the event.
