According to New York Postapparently the man stalled in the returns line for stand near the girl and say to her: “MI love your Mickey ears and I think you are too big to be in that shopping cart”. This caused the girl to then remove her ears.
“I think you are so beautiful,” he would have told her on a second occasion.according to what the girl’s mother told the police. Upon noticing the situation, the woman immediately asked to be accompanied to her vehicle in the parking lot of the establishment, for fear that the stalker would follow them.
In fact, once outside, Scott waited in his car until the woman and girl left the store.staring at them and causing concern in the mother, who managed to take a picture of the license plate of the vehicle Hurley was using.
Everything did not go to worse thanks to the fact that A good Samaritan who was there intervened in the parking lot warning the mother’s fear and bullying Hurley into leaving from the place and stop harassing the girl.
