Melissa Seals says she was cutting a customer's hair last month at her Oakland beauty shop when six women came into the store. One of them, a friend, started hitting her, because of a dispute over a boyfriend.

"It happened so fast but when I seen it I couldn't believe it, I didn't even remember what happened to me until I seen it on YouTube," Seals said.
Two women took turns beating her, while another records the whole thing with a video camera. The others just watch.
Oakland police spokesperson Jeff Thomason says the YouTube video will be valuable evidence against the women involved in this attack.
"It's very disturbing to see that kind of attack take place in the city of Oakland, and obviously we want to get these people in custody," Thomason said.
Anyone who recognizes any of the attackers in the video is asked to call the Oakland Police Department at 510-238-3426.
