Amiyah told me she was in the park playing tag with Kierra, Samara and Jayenna and Ali was sitting down. Amiyah said Ali began waving his cane at them whenever they would run past him.

Amiyah showed me her right shin and I observed there was swelling and bruising, about the size of a golf ball, on her shin. Kierra said she was not struck with the cane, but she saw Ali waving the cane at all of them when they would run by him, and he hit Amiyah, Samara, and Jayenna with the cane. Chantell Lutz contacted me and told me her daughter, Jayenna, was playing at the park with some friends. Lutz went on to say at about 2000 hours Jayenna told her a male had struck her on the lower right leg causing her to trip and fall to the ground. Jayenna was standing next to Lutz and showed me her right elbow and I observed she had a scrap that appeared to be fresh. Jayenna also showed me her lower right leg and pointed to a red mark on the inside portion and stated that was wear the cane had hit her. Lutz stated she wanted to press charges against Ali for assaulting Jayenna. Samara contacted me and told me she was hit in her right thumb by Ali
