Last month, police arrested a woman accused of assaulting a pair of women at a convenience store in Omaha, Nebraska, as a child cried with the attackers and begged them to stop.
Police told Blaze News they arrested Zaria Nichols, 26, on Friday in connection with the Feb. 16 attack that was captured on surveillance video. Nichols is facing criminal charges of two counts of third-degree assault, two counts of criminal mischief and one count of child abuse/neglect, police said, adding that the charges are all misdemeanors.

The station said the charger was installed along the wall.
According to KETV, the suspect was there for a while, but then a dispute broke out over the purchase of a charger. “I’ll pay for it, that’s fine, but can I return it if it doesn’t work in my car?” she asked, according to the station.
According to KETV, there was a mix-up and the woman was upset. She said the woman “feels like she’s being discriminated against and is angry because people think she doesn’t know what I’m talking about,” she said in a statement, according to the station.
KETV reported that the suspect began yelling profanities, which upset several customers, and a shouting match ensued, and a girl dressed in pink who was with the suspect began crying.
A short time later, the female suspect physically attacked one of the women, punching her in the face at least three times.
