SALT LAKE CITY -- A Layton man is accused of punching a haunted house employee in the face at Nightmare on 13th.
The incident was caught on camera Saturday inside the facility in Salt Lake City.
Officers said 25-year-old Angelo Apadaca punched the woman so hard he knocked her front teeth back and she was covered in blood.
Apadaca is facing a felony aggravated assault charge. Police say it is not clear what motivated the incident.
"Totally unprovoked, [the suspect] struck one of our actresses," said Nightmare on 13th owner Troy Barber. "We immediately saw it on a surveillance camera. And we have three police and eight security people all on radios and so he didn't get very far."
Apadaca has a criminal history, including most recently a year spent in jail for an attempted manslaughter charge.
