Twin teenage girls are accused of attacking a man with pepper spray and a knife during a fight at the Walmart in Egg Harbor Township this week.
Police were called to the Walmart at 7:13 p.m. Sunday, and were able to stop the car that was leaving the scene with the 16-year-old girls, Lt. Heath Per said.
The 16-year-old twin sisters from the Bronx allegedly attacked the 32-year-old Sicklerville man during a verbal argument, according to the investigation.
One of the sisters thn doused him with pepper spray while the other stabbed him with a knife, Per said.
The teens were arrested along with 22-year-old Arabia Crawford, of Atlantic City.
All three were charged with aggravated assault, assault with a deadly weapon, possession of a weapon, possession of a weapon for an unlawful purpose and conspiracy.
Crawford was additionally charged with use of a minor to commit a criminal offense.
The juveniles were taken to Harborfields Detention Center.
Crawford was released on a summons.
It is the second stabbing to happen at that Walmart in a week. Last week, a man was stabbed while trying to stop a group from harassing another customer.
The victim, whose name was not released, was treated for non-life-threatening injuries to his limbs, Per said.
Anyone with information regarding the incident is asked to call Detective Michael Santoro at 609-926-4051.
