Three juveniles suspects entered a market. Victim 1 saw the suspects concealing store items inside their clothing. One suspect was wearing a black ski mask.

The suspects became verbally aggressive. Victim 1 attempted to retrieve an item from suspect 3. Suspect 3 then bit the elderly male so hard and long that the victim had to pry the suspect’s jaw off his arm. Then suspect 3 punched victim 1 in the face. Suspects 1 and 2 continued to be involved in fighting. 

Suspect 3 then picked up an A-frame traffic sign from down the block and returned to the market where suspect 3 unsuccessfully attempted to throw the large metal and wood A-frame at Victim 1. 

Officers detained and arrested all three suspects. 

Suspect 3 had a tiny wrist and slipped one hand out of the handcuffs while being walked to the patrol vehicle. Suspect 3 resisted the officer escorting her and lashed out and attempted to bite the other officer on scene in the back causing the officer to be thrown to the ground causing the back of her head to strike a fixed object. 

Suspect 3 continued to actively resist and threated to bite the officer still fighting her resistance. All three juvenile suspects were cleared medically and were booked at Youth Juvenile Center.
