BALTIMORE (WJZ) Its the heart of Baltimores tourism industry, but the Inner Harbor turned into a nightmare for a visiting family of 10 earlier this month.
Out of nowhere, they were swarmed and beaten by a large number of teenagers.
While the family that was attacked does not want to be identified, they do want their story to be heard. They told their story to WJZ off-camera.
They swarmed us, said Stacey. They hit my husband in the head. They knocked him out and then it was just complete bedlam.
It happened on the day of the Baltimore Marathon, Oct. 21. The event brought a big crowd to the harbor that night. The 10 family members, from grandparents to grandchildren, were walking by the H&M store when they were overwhelmed.
And they punched my nephew in the face and knocked him to the floor, Stacey said. My sister went to protect her son, and they were kicking her. I was knelling with my husband screaming Somebody help us, why is nobody helping us?'
Baltimore City police spokesman T.J. Smith says groups of teens have been a problem in the city.
Its always groups of them, he said. Someone in that group starts it, and thats what we saw in this situation.
In March, a group followed a man downtown, hurling insults, which quickly escalated into a physical assault, and a rapid scattering by the attackers. The same technique used last week when two bicyclists were robbed and beaten by a group.
The disrespect from some of these juveniles is just absolutely unbelievable and stunning, Smith said. And it should be to society.
Maybe if thered been police on foot, those people would never have been congregating there, looking for a fight, you know looking to hit somebody, said another victim, Sal.
Well we did have cops all over the place, but again they probably got there relatively quickly, but we cant have cops on every corner in every single block of the city, according to Smith.
While police are reviewing surveillance video of the attack, the victims cant stop replaying it in their minds.
After this, I cant sleep at night, seeing what happened over and over again in my head, Stacey said. Seeing my family attacked.
Two members of the family suffered concussions. Others came away with scrapes and bruises, and a vow never return to the Inner Harbor.
As yet, police have no suspects in the attack. Because the group appears to have been made up of juveniles, if they are found they cannot be identified.

“Random teens”! Yeah right!
And by teens they mean negroes.
This is presumptively crazy, dangerous black youths who regularly do this kind of senseless violence. Will we ever know?
Teens.
Baltimore.
Not a chance.
Animals.
Nazis? White nationalists? /S
Baltimore is a dump. And that includes the Inner Harbor.
If the NFL had started kneeling sooner, Baltimore’s problems would be fixed by now.
Hmmm...those “teens” again. There must be some identifiable pattern, but nobody can discern it.

Being a Baltimore City “police spokesman” has to be one of the toughest jobs in the world. You can’t say what you really think and have to measure every word. One wrong word and you are toast.
My daughter just spent a week in the Baltimore Inner Harbor on business and loved it; said it’s a place she’d like to live, partly because it is affordable. It’s so hard to disabuse the naive youngsters of stupid notions like that.
Obama’s sons?
I would bet a million dollars on it.
Put a cap in two or three of these SOBs and we’ll know real quick who they are. They won’t be “random” anymore....they’ll be headline news about how “senseless” their death was...they were just starting “to turn they lives around”...etc, etc. All the useless lib BS they use to cover for these feral animals.
Agree; I said that before on this site. Baltimore is a first class, no class dump. Avoid it.
Just a bunch feral concrete jungle dwellers displaying their superiority over invaders of their territory.
Tiggers.
More violent anti-white racist attacks.
< golf clap>
Perfect
Figgers
“but we cant have cops on every corner in every single block of the city
So the number of potential young attackers in Baltimore is no enormous that making visitors feel safe would require putting police on every corner? The Baltimore Visitors Bureau and Chamber of Commerce must’ve loved that. Ditto downtown businesses, sports venues, etc.
