MEMPHIS, TN - (WMC) - A video of a group of teenagers beating a Kroger employee in the store's parking lot is circulating on Facebook.

A Kroger employee tells WMC Action News 5 that the attack happened at the Kroger near Highland Street and Poplar Avenue.

Accroding to police, three people were jumped by a large group of teenagers who were chanting "fam mob." The group, who came from CiCi's Pizza, reportedly attacked a 25-year-old customer as he left his car to enter Kroger. Two employees, ages 17 and 18, were attacked while trying to stop the fight. Both were "struck several times in the head and face, while being knocked to the ground." The victims say large pumpkins were thrown at their heads. They both eventually were knocked unconscious.

The victims were treated on the scene for their injuries. All three refused to be taken to the hospital. The 17-year-old victim's father said his son is OK and is at home.

The Kroger manager told police the store's surveillance video can only be accessed by "loss prevention" on weekdays between 8 a.m. and 5 p.m.

Police want to know whether anyone else was approached, harassed, or injured by the teenagers. If so, please contact police at the Tillman Station precinct.

Spent one night in Memphis....all I recall was the sirens on emergency vehicles blaring all evening. What a hole, reminded me of Newark.

The refusal of the media to report the race of thugs is bad enough, but it’s getting even worse now. Now they’re depicting the “diverse” criminals as caucasion.

I watch a lot of true crime stuff on TV. One half-hour show was a reinactment of a hideous crime, showing a white perpetrator throughout the entire half hour. They show him walking with his mother, also white. At the very end of the show, the mug shot was flashed — quickly — on the screen. Black as can be.

The same week there was another story where the bad guy had an obvious Hispanic name, something like Jose Gonzales. The actor playing him looked like a midwest high school quarterback and prom king, blonde and buff. I kept thinking, “WTF? Jose Gonzales?” (Later, I tried to find the actor’s name on IMDB, but it wasn’t listed. Probably Sven Hanson or something.) In any case, at the end of the show the real guy’s picture was flashed — an absolutely terrifying Hispanic man.

They’re manipulating us. They think it just isn’t fair for us to believe that minorities commit the majority of crimes, so they’ll mess with our heads.

Many Counties in this Country are also messing with the crime statistics. Lots of “alleged criminals” listed as “white” on their booking info, but name and picture say something else.

The person who taped this and uploaded it, is reportedly a cashier at Kroger.

We used to get rid of them during hurricanes. The bigger they were the more thugs that disappeared.During andrew they took the dead guys out by tractor trailer and it was never reported.Some actually died from the storm.

If they don’t say the race, you know the race.

Kroger is known for ensuring their customers are unarmed.

Don’t shop were you can’t be safe

I think you're misinformed from what I've been reading lately.

In a statement, Kroger explained why it allows the guns, saying it doesn't want employees confronting legally armed customers.

"That is why our long-standing policy on this issue is to follow state and local laws and to ask customers to be respectful of others while shopping to feed their families," the statement said. "We know that our customers are passionate on both sides of this issue, and we trust them to be responsible in our stores."

This is why I am ALWAYS (legally) armed. Unless absolutely necessary, I don’t go anywhere that I can’t be armed.

I’d venture to say that the video shot by the Kroger store will be”lost” due to a failed hard drive.
The back-ups will have also suffered a catastrophic failure as well.

I hope the employees get well, then win a lawyer lottery.

Kinda OT, but it seems Target is in the news again, it seems MDA has realized they didn’t actually ban guns and some of the sheep have just found out nothug changed. Haven’t found anything definitive though.

Yes, isn’t it time we demand of the media to start calling a “spade” a “spade”..............no pun intended.........well...........kinda sort of.............

........maybe we should reach in the dust bin of history and pull out the old word “Negro” and use it. To wit: .............”Negro teenage flash mob cowardly attacks old white man in parking lot”...........

The fact that the attackers are BLACK or Negro or whatever is RELEVANT though and the media are encouraging more and more of this by COVERING UP THAT FACT! Therefore, the media has blood on it’s hands.

Let’s hope the victims’ families have the brains to collect copies of security video from Cici’s Pizza, whence the feral hoard came. My guess is the Memphis PD will do its best NOT to find anything requiring action on their part.

And I'll bet those news reports are all local news reports. There is never any mention on the national news channels of the black crime epidemic that has crippled the nation for the last fifty years.

Many adults are blissfully unaware of this. Of course, most whites living in cities with large concentrations of blacks know where to go and who to avoid if at all possible.
