After the girl was denied, she reportedly left the store, only to return with a group of teenage friends. That is when the all-out assault on the two female employees began, police said.
The incident was captured on cell phone video — which will certainly help authorities in their search for suspects — and has been released to news outlets.

“This is an absolute senseless act of violence,” Mesquite Police Dept. Lt. Brandon Picketts told Fox 4.
