Magician 'Sucker Punched' At Child's Birthday Party In Pacific Palisades: Report

PACIFIC PALISADES, CA — A man was arrested Saturday after he attacked three people in Pacific Palisades, including a magician at a 4-year-old's birthday party, according to a report.

The first in the series of attacks occurred at around 3:30 p.m. on the 400 block of Mesa Road, when the suspect punched a man. The second occurred about 15 minutes later, inside a man's home as he walked in the door, and the third occurred at the birthday party, ABC 7 reported.

The second attack occurred after the suspect walked in behind a man as he entered his own home. The victim was transported to a hospital with serious injuries to his face and hands, ABC 7 reported.

After that incident, the suspect headed to Rustic Canyon Recreational Park, where he targeted a magician performing at a child's birthday party.

"In the middle of his performance, a strange man kind of came from behind and sucker-punched him," witness Alec Egan told ABC 7. "Then kind of situated himself in between the magician and, I don't know, 20 kids, including my daughter, whose birthday it was."

The suspect has not been publicly identified.
