Hundreds Of Teens Trash Family Fun Center After Being Told To Leave

Hundreds of angry teens trashed a mini-golf center after they were told to leave because the facility was violating COVID-19 mandates on social distancing. According to WHBQ, parents began dropping off their kids at the and Games Family Park in Memphis, Tennessee, leaving them unattended. The crowd quickly ballooned with between 300-400 teens hanging out. That's when the park decided shut down and asked everybody to leave.

Video recorded inside showed a girl demanding a refund from an employee and going berserk when she was denied. She ripped down a plexiglass divider and threw it towards employees. As other kids started to run and throw things, the girl picked up a metal stand and threw it towards the employees, who were hiding behind the counter.

At some point, fireworks were set off, causing a stampede as people tried to rush out of the building. Luckily, nobody was injured.

Police eventually arrived and the situation was brought under control. They issued a juvenile summons for disorderly conduct to one teen and are continuing to investigate the incident.

Games Family Park issued a statement on Facebook and blamed parents for leaving their children unattended.

“Unfortunately, yesterday evening we had an incident that we have never experienced in 57 years of business. Parents chose to leave large groups of teenagers at our facility without parental supervision. Some of those people chose to create a disturbance the likes of which we have never seen. We are very thankful that none of our Golf and Games family or customers were injured in this situation.”

Workers cleaned up the mess and were able to reopen the next day. Going forward, adults will be required to accompany minors at the park.
