New Jersey authorities are searching for two people who hit and spit at an Ocean County Mall store employee after she asked them to cover their faces with their masks.
The man and woman had masks hanging around their neck when they arrived at the skateboarding shop Zumiez, at Ocean County Mall, and an employee asked them to cover their faces while shopping, reported Patch.com.
Police said the couple walked into Zumiez, which sells skateboards and apparel, with their face masks hanging around their necks. The man became irate and started yelling at the clerk, then picked up a belt that was for sale and snapped it at the employee — striking her several times, police said.
The couple started to leave the store, but the woman turned around, yelled at the clerk, and then spat on her, investigators said.
Police were unable to find the couple right after the incident, but the clerk took a photo of the pair (above).
