An Ohio mom has been arrested after a violent incident in a Mayfield Heights involving her six-year-old daughter. Authorities are not publicly naming the woman in this case, which is probably fortunate for her since the assault was witnessed by members of the public, and the details of the incident are pretty upsetting.
Various media sources out of Cleveland are reporting on the incident, which took place earlier this month in Mayfield Heights. An Ohio mom was witnessed by several shoppers and employees of Target as she lost her temper on her misbehaving six-year-old daughter. According to surveillance footage, and witnesses, the child was attempting to run from her mother as she was reaching out for her. This angered the woman who chased the child and tackled her into a shelf full of merchandise. Once she tackled the child, she began punching her in the face and upper body.
The assault wasn't over after the child was beaten in front of everyone. The Ohio mom also reportedly shoved the child to the exit of the store, which caused the six-year-old girl to fall. Witnesses say she picked the girl up roughly and pulled her through the parking lot. Police arrived on the scene as she was forcing the girl into her vehicle.
The unnamed woman has been charged with domestic violence against her six-year-old daughter, and has likely been released from jail by this point. Police released the child in to the custody of her father, who was present at the time of the assault. Hopefully child services are keeping a close eye on this family, before the next news report is about the death of this child.
