A Florida mother has been charged with inciting a riot of upwards of 400 people at a skating rink after owners cancelled her daughter's 18th birthday party.
Shocking video footage emerged back in May showing the moment the riot broke out at Astro Skate in the Tampa Bay area, leading to the arrest of 26 people.
Cops confirmed Thursday that Stephanie Pedroso, 36, has been arrested after she reportedly used her daughter's Instagram to encourage as many people as possible to turn up to the rink.
Pedroso was said to be seeking revenge on staff after they cancelled the private party when they discovered it was a larger event than she originally told them.
She has now been charged with unlawful use of a cellphone, inciting a riot and driving with a suspended or revoked license.
*** Astro Skate reportedly asked that Pedroso sign a contract stipulating she would hire an off-duty officer for security - which she failed to do.
She also allegedly broke the rink's rules by reselling tickets and posting unauthorized advertisements depicting something other than a kids' party.
According to owner Chris Maganias, Pedroso became angry and started a livestream on her daughter's Instagram urging people to come to the rink and confront law enforcement.
'We were within our rights to cancel her party and that's what we did,' he said.
’She came in, flipped out, cussed and screamed and posted nonsense about [coming] to the skating rink the next night.'

Been going on for a while now.. d;^)
Now I understand perfectly what guys like the Greg Foreman, aka Black Conservative Perspective the Conservative Twins, among others mean when they say even Black people don’t want to live next to n****rs.
That one is not even that bad. Some are huge women with huge breasts and 80 percent of it all is hanging out. It seems like they couldn’t wait till the hot weather so they could start exposing themselves.
NYC used to be a sophisticated place. It gets worse year by year.
<< Too many in our society have lost the notion of civility. >>
Or in the case of this particular subculture, never had it to begin with. The only thing keeping them (somewhat) in line previously wasn’t a greater sense of civility, but a fear of consequences. Ever since the summer of 2020, that fear has been greatly diminished.
How about the 500 showing up expressly to riot?
Seems like a perfect opportunity to charge and process them all—and immediately cut down on such idiocy.
