(October 1, 2008)—Police in Hyde Park, Calif. are looking for a man who punched a teenage girl during an argument over who was first in line at a fast food restaurant.

A surveillance camera recorded the attack.

Video shows the man punching the 16-year-old several times and then leaving the McDonalds restaurant with two little boys in a red truck.

Onlookers watched, but did nothing to stop the attack.

Police are hoping someone will recognize the man and come forward with information about who he is.

Most people do nothing because they are cowards themselves. I've seen the incident just like everyone else,but kids like this mouthy 16 year old need to learn their role in the world and realize that she shoould have not gotten in an adults face like she was in school or something.Yea it was wrong that the man hit this young big mouth girl but I bet next time she'll think before opening her big mouth again. People really need to get out of this "I know you didn't" attitude and things like this wouldn't happen on the streets and in the schools. There is a different way to handel things like this and by the way the girl did is not the right way as we all see.

I can't believe that there were no men to be found there to stop this kind of stuff from happening. A man does not hit a woman and a man does not standby when he sees a man hit a woman.The greatest evil in this world is when good men do nothing.

Dawn, I'm glad I'm not the only one that feels that way. I can't stand my own family when they start acting irrational. That scene was total stupidity from both sides.

This is why I refuse to live around black people. And I am Black.

Typical Black male. Most of them have no problem whatsoever with hitting women. Or cheating on them. Or not taking care of their kids. I bet his father wasn't around at all. This monster needs to be found and thrown in jail, and maybe his poor son (that looked like he was trying to make his dad stop) will get a real man for a father.

This world has become a very scary place. Adults attacking kids at football games and family restaurants. What worrys me is if this man can get that angry at a staranger then what does he do to those poor little boys at home.

This thug should get the maxs!

I feel bad for the young girl, The man should have had more restraint especially since he did this while his 2 young boys watched!! He must know what sort of impression he will leave on his young sons lives, minds by reacting this way to something that could have been avoided,his age shows his immaturity & ignorance. As for the young girl she should also have tried to avoid this confrontation. As for the onlookers what is on these people's minds, This is one reason so many bad things happen because people just dont want to get involved anymore!!!So sad this is the way people act now a days, just turn the other way & not care to help at all !!! So So Sad !!!!

This is really sad what the world is coming too. It's really bad for the 2 kids that he had with them. Now he is going to have to pay for what he has done and not going to be their for the kids while he is in jail.

Maybe we can put this guy in the same cell as the half-ton baby killer and see what happens at meal time???

Posted by: Betty Location: Moody on Oct 1, 2008 at 10:45 PM
Just another case of witnesses not wanting to get involved! Too scared or maybe just not caring!

hopefully no one takes the law in their own hands or becomes a vigilante, chances are that person is unstable depending on the severety he's a ticking timebomb. I hope those kids are safe

Stay away from McDonalds... it is a dangerous place.

Hmmm....what ever happened to "Ladies first"?

I do not believe anyone should hit another soul but they both need to learn how to control themselves and not be such morans... they were in line for McDonalds!!!
