Mob attack on family caught on camera
LOUISVILLE, Kentucky -- Kentucky police are investigating a string of alleged assaults by a group of teens. One of the teens was caught on camera.
A woman says they attacked her and her family as her kids watched in horror.
"This is like something out of a movie. I've never seen something like this before," Viola Loeffler said.
It was around 8 p.m. Saturday when she and her family were attacked at a Louisville intersection.
"Right before we got to the stoplight, we noticed about 50 to 100 teens coming to the middle of the street. It was a one-way street so we couldn't go any further. All of a sudden, one of them throws a garbage can on our car," she explained.
Loeffle says after that, the situation quickly escalated. Her boyfriend, Ron Carter, was in the driver's seat and stopped the car to see what was going on.
They say when he got out, the teens moved in on him.
"Then all of a sudden, I'm getting attacked," Carter said. "At that point, I jump in the driver's seat and heard them throwing rocks at my car. The rocks were hitting the kids inside the car."
Meanwhile, Loeffler and her five children were still inside the car.
"Survival mode, and I tried to analyze the situations as quick as possible and figure out the safest way to get everyone safe," Loeffler said.
The mother says she couldn't speed away because they were surrounded by the group of teens and she didn't want to run them over.
That's when one of them attacked her.
"The boy comes out of nowhere, punches me in the eye, knocks me out," she said.
She says the next moments were a blur, but somehow, Loeffler, Carter and all five kids made their way to Bader's Food Mart and were able to get to safety until police got there.
Loeffler says her children, all under the age of 12, witnessed everything.
"One of my kids is going to have to, she needs counseling. She's been having nightmares these past few day, waking up shaking and crying. There needs to be better guidance for these kids around here. I'm very glad that we're alive," Loeffler said.
The approximately 200 teens were involved in at least 17 incidents, according to police. There has been at least one arrest and police are looking for more suspects.
She should have hit the gas and plowed right through them.
