A woman was attacked outside a movie theater on Easter Sunday

A Pennsylvania woman is recovering after she says she was beat up for "shushing" teenagers at a movie theater.

Cindy Santamaria-Williams claims a group of teens attacked her and her sister in law outside a movie theater in the Poconos. She says during a showing of "Furious 7" she asked three teenage girls to be quiet and quit cursing.

After shushing them she also complained to the theater manager. Santamaria-Williams says after the movie the three girls and five more teens were waiting outside.

"And they immediately jumped on me and knocked me to the ground, punched me in the face. I think that's what knocked me to the ground," said Cindy Santamaria-Williams.

Police are reviewing surveillance video from the parking lot with hopes of identifying the teens.
