United States Marine and Wife attacked by Punk Kids Outside of Florida Theater



US Marine Frederico Freire, just back from Afghanistan, was trying to enjoy a date night with his wife. Some loud teenagers kept them from enjoying their time together. Freire asked the teenagers to shut up during the movie and for doing so, the teenagers waited outside of the theater and attacked the Marine and his wife after the movie.

From KTTV:

“I got back up to defend myself and they started running everywhere,” Frederico Freire [the Marine] told the paper, adding that he saw one of the teens — shirtless — punch his wife in the face, knocking her out, as she tried to get to safety.

A witness brandished a gun in an attempt to break up the mayhem and deputies soon arrived.
Four teens and one adult were arrested and about 300 bystanders had gathered by the end of the incident. As deputies tried to restore order, the movie theater manager had to shut down the facility — and dole out thousands of dollars in refunds to patrons.

Freire and his wife were not seriously injured, but he said he considered filing lawsuits against his attackers and the theater for failing to provide adequate security.
