WTH? Man tries to rape a woman in an elevator in the presence of her daughter

A man tried to rape a woman in an elevator while her child was present. In the video reportedly shot in an elevator in China, the unsuspecting woman is seen getting in with her daughter while a man followed behind. As soon as they were in the elevator and it began ascending, the man can be seen checking out the woman's butt. Then when the elevator stopped and she tried to get out, he pulled her back inside, punched a button to shut the doors, then proceeded to attack the woman. The man throws the woman to the floor and slaps her multiple times as she struggles. The elevator door opens multiple times after that but each time, he makes sure to prevent her from leaving and holds her down. The struggle continues for long until the woman finally pulls her high-heeled shoe and attacks him with it. Watch the shocking video below.
