Independent Journalism in Miami Needs You
We need to raise $10,000 by August 9 to support the reporting our community depends on. Reader support keeps us independent and is playing a larger role in funding local journalism and shaping what comes next. If you believe independent local journalism matters, make a contribution today.
Dealing with other people’s crying kids is just a part of life. In the scheme of things, it’s really nothing to get overly annoyed at. Well, a man in a Surfside Publix crossed the line.
The man was in an elevator with a mother and her two young daughters. The woman’s 3-year-old was crying, and the man grabbed her face. He then pushed her face. The mother attempted to push her stroller into him, but the man got away.
“He just went and grabbed at her face. And she says that her skin hurt from it. He just grabbed at her face and he wouldn’t take his hand off,” the mother tells WSVN.
The man is believed to be in his 50s, six feet three inches tall, about 180 pounds, and with tan skin and wrinkles. Anyone with information is asked to call Miami-Dade Crime Stoppers at 305-471-TIPS [WSVN]
