Group Of US Teens Ransack Chinese Restaurant In Queens, Police Search For Suspects — WATCH

According to a video shared on Twitter by community activist Yiatin Chu, a Chinese restaurant, called Fish Village, in College Point, Queens, was left ransacked by a gang of masked kids on Saturday.

New Delhi: In a shocking incident, a group of masked teens entered a Chinese restaurant in New York City's Queens area and vandalized it over the weekend, flipping tables and chairs as terrified staff and customers looked on helplessly, according to The New York Post.

According to a video shared on Twitter by community activist Yiatin Chu, a Chinese restaurant, called Fish Village, in College Point, Queens, was left ransacked by a gang of masked kids on Saturday.

Sharing the post, Chu, president of Asian Wave Alliance and a co-founder of PLACE NYC, wrote, "We’ve fallen so low that there’s no expectation of consequences for this horrific attack on private property." 

“This video is going viral on WeChat. Fish Village, a restaurant in College Point, Qns was ransacked by a gang of masked kids in hoodies,” she wrote.

“It was a bit frightening,” restaurant worker Tong Yi Hu told The New York Post in Mandarin on Tuesday. “We have no idea what the cause was, and it was pretty nerve-wracking. It’s getting less and less safe,” he said of the city.

Speaking to WCBS-TV, Hu said, “From the time they entered to the time they left, it only took a minute. They didn’t say a word. We have no idea what was happening," reported the New York Daily News.

“I was behind the register and was in shock,” he told the station. “Then I ran to call 911, but by the time I got through, they were already gone.”

According to the Daily News, Hu said that the stunt caused more than $20,000 in damages.

“This is a big financial loss,” he said, adding, “Especially our reputation to future customers. Nobody wants to go to a place where things like this happen.”

According to The New York Post, cops are still looking for suspects and no arrests have been made in the case so far.
