Merciful heavens! The accused are off duty employees!
--- Quote ---...Both men are employees of the park and were visiting on their day off, Gurnee police Sgt. Jon Ward said....
The suspects denied the attack, but witnesses confirmed the story, police said.
The 24-year-old woman inside the mascot costume suffered headaches and a stiff neck, but did not require hospitalization, Ward said.
The sergeant said the mascots are accompanied by a security guard, and attacks on mascots happen once or twice a year....
