Mob of teens attack bystander who tries to break up brawl inside Brooklyn McDonald’s

PIX 11 – by ASHLEY EDWARDS

BROOKLYN (PIX11) — Another disturbing teen melee broke out inside a Brooklyn McDonald’s Friday, and this time, the brawlers turned their violence on an innocent man trying to break the fracas up and on employees of the fast food joint.

The brutality began at the McDonald’s on Flatbush Avenue Extension  in Downtown Brooklyn at about 3 p.m., just as schools were letting out. In the video, a teen girl can be seen standing on a table taking off her top, apparently preparing herself for the fight.  

Two young girls begin trading blows, and people try to tear them apart. An older gentleman in a hat tries to diffuse the situation, but is turned on by the teen boys crowding around, who seemed to have been enjoying the fight. The narrator, Don Balmain, can be heard gleefully yelling, “Kill him!” interspersed with laughs.

Total chaos breaks out in the restaurant, with teens fighting with cashiers over the counter.

The teens eventually chase the older man outside, with the goon behind the camera screaming, “Kill him right now!” A woman stands in front of him to shield him from the mob. The cameraman shouts, “They can’t help you!”

Balmain later posted the video on his Facebook page and sardonically commented, “They put that old man in the hospital I feel bad for telling them to kill him.”

911 was called, and a woman was taken to Brooklyn Hospital, officials told PIX11. Another man was aided at the scene, but refused medical attention.

No one was arrested at the scene. Two formal complaints for assault were filed, and are under investigation.

Community activist Tony Herbert is appalled by the video. “These are young people, from the community, that should be doing something more positive.”

A Brooklyn mother who frequents the McDonald’s location say she’s disgusted and scared for her children. “To see something like that … it’s scary.”

  1. First of all the 14th isnt a Friday.. today is Friday and its the 15th

    also 3Pm Friday hasn’t happened yet

  2. “Community activist Tony Herbert is appalled by the video. ‘These are young people, from the community, that should be doing something more positive.’ ”

    That’s hilarious. Something more positive?
    Suggest that to them and they’ll say “yeah, we positively should have robbed the cash registers while we were there.”

    Otherwise, it’s just a typical after-school brawl. Black people make a lot of noise (yelling and cheering) when things like this happen, and that makes it seem a lot more chaotic than it actually is.

    1. The neighborhood this happened in is a Zoo, not too far from the Brooklyn side of the bridge. Did the McDonald’s employees seem very surprised? It’s nothing too unusual in that neighborhood, and you’re only hearing about it because there’s video footage.

  3. Savage animals. I am sorry, but I simply have no respect for human trash regardless of their skin color. If I am to be completely honest, I am surprised the human race has survived this long.

  4. TO SUNFIRE..HISTORY IS RAPIDLY COMING TO A CLOSE..
    2Pe 3:9 The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.
    2Pe 3:10 But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night; in the which the heavens shall pass away with a great noise, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat, the earth also and the works that are therein shall be burned up.
    2Pe 3:11 Seeing then that all these things shall be dissolved, what manner of persons ought ye to be in all holy conversation and godliness,
    2Pe 3:12 Looking for and hasting unto the coming of the day of God, wherein the heavens being on fire shall be dissolved, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat?

  5. “An older gentleman in a hat tries to diffuse the situation, but is turned on by the teen boys crowding around, who seemed to have been enjoying the fight.”

    His first mistake was being in a McDoodles to begin with.
