SALEM, N.J. – Police in southern New Jersey are looking for a woman who was videotaped beating a mother in front of the victim's toddler.
The video shows the woman pummeling the mother in the face and kicking her in the back along a trail in Salem on Tuesday night as bystanders watch. The suspect is also heard threatening to attack the victim's 2-year-old son, who kicked the suspect's legs.
Police Chief John Pelura III said Thursday they are searching for 25-year-old Latia Harris. Pelura says authorities had an address for Harris but she was not there. Police obtained the video before it was removed from Facebook.
