A woman is under arrest for allegedly dumping popcorn on a 2-year-old child at a movie theater back in January.
Detectives said 25-year-old Keri Karman and 61-year-old Charles Karman told the child to quiet down during the movie at a theater in Levittown on Long Island.
The girl's mother intervened then Keri Karman put her hand over the girl's mouth and started yelling and cursing at her.
Police said Keri then dumped popcorn on the girl, hit her in the head with the empty container and ran off.
The little girl suffered a contusion.
Both of the Karmans are charged with endangering the welfare of a child.
I don’t think we took our two-year old to an indoor movie, ever. Eating out was dicey...
Ditto for hurt kids stories. Geez
A 2-year old can not sit quietly through a 90-120 minute film. It's just more than their little attention spans can handle.
This being said, clearly throwing popcorn at them was the wrong response.
Concussion?! From an empty cardboard popcorn container?!
Contusion, not concussion. But children’s heads are more vulnerable than adults.
Contusion not concussion.
I’d hit it.
No. Contusion only.
Contusion.
They didn’t take the 2 year-old to see the movie. They took the 2 year-old because the mother wanted to see the movie and she didn’t care if the child ruined everyone’s else time.
What about me?
Id hit it with a steel popcorn container.
Confusion, not contusion or concussion or Confucius.
Collusion.
She looks disturbed.
Reminds me of some idiot on a plane that turned around to yell at MY two year old
I sure humiliated him in front of passengers and made my two year old laugh at him
I often harangue parents who are yelling at not their kid
I say do you have any kids ?
The answer is always no
Then I tell them have some of your own first before taking on others
Contusion, not concussion.
Yup. They should have rammed the empty popcorn carton on her head once emptied. /no sarc
Wifey and I stopped going to the theaters over 20 years ago because of the thoughtless and inconsiderate slobs that now infest theaters.
Looks like Geddy Lee.
