Four juveniles accused in Warwick knife slash attack on moviegoers who asked them to be quiet

WARWICK, R.I. (WLNE) — Warwick police arrested four juvenile males Tuesday night following an alleged knife attack outside of the Apple Cinemas on Bald Hill Road.

The incident occurred at 11:49 p.m. when police responded to reports of a fight at the cinema.

Four male suspects, ages 16, 14, 15 and 15 were reportedly upset that they were told to be quiet during a movie.

The suspects then allegedly followed the three adult individuals to their vehicle where they assaulted them and “slashed” two them with knives.

The two victims sustained non-life threatening injuries, according to Warwick police.

The suspects were quickly taken into custody and the knives believed used in the attack were recovered.

Police contacted family court and all four juveniles were ordered to be turned over to the training school pending their Wednesday court appearance.

The investigation is ongoing.
