Not sure where this goes, ,so if need be...feel free to move this!
We drove out to NWI on Monday to see friends and family. I was driving on 65 when my husband informed me we had to get on 80-94. I got off at an exit in Merriville so he could take over driving.
While pulling into a gas station, I noticed movement in the Mcdonalds parking lot and looked over. There were 2 cars facing the road as if they were pulling out of the parking lot. Both drivers of the vehicles were out of there car along with a good 10 other people standing around.
There were a group of 3+ girls beating the crap out of the driver of the first car(another female). They were all over this girl. Had her by the back of the head and repeatedly beating her in the face. At one point, I saw the smashing her head into the back of the car...over and over.
Of course, I called the police and told them to get there.....and quick. I thought for sure they were going to kill her and told the police that.
Doug wanted to go over there and see if he could help that girl, but I told him no. We had our daughter in the car, and they KNEW I called the police. There were too many people over there and I was afraid he might get jumped as well. I don't know if that was the right move, but I couldn't send him over there not knowing if one of the bystanders was armed etc
.
I don't have my ltch yet so NO firearm. Even if I did have a firearm, I'm not sure if I would/should have tried to interfere. Should I have? Was I in the wrong? I should I have handled this? I feel bad, like maybe I didn't do what I should have. Please give me your input.
I had never seen anyone get beat that bad...ever. I never want to see anything like that again. I'm a lover, not a fighter.
Whatever the reason was that they were fighting was personal. The girls doing the beating kept yelling "You know what you did *****!!" I'm sure the one getting beat wasn't "innocent", but I doubt she deserved that and it broke my heart!
+100 for the police....they were there quickly and seemed to get it under control. When we left there where 13 squad cars and an ambulance.
Tell me if I handled this right...and if not, what I should have done differently!
TIA
