Cruel attack on teenage girl captured on video

A Missouri teenager was left in critical condition after her head repeatedly was bashed into the concrete road during a massive, off-campus high school brawl that was caught on camera.

The fight involving the teenage girl, whose identity has not been released, broke out around 2:30 p.m. Friday, at an intersection just north of Hazelwood High School, St. Louis police spokeswoman Vera Clay told Fox 2 Now.

Devastating footage of the melee posted online showed two teenage girls start hitting each other on a residential road when one pushes the other to the ground and punches her.

The victim could be seen trying to push her attacker away as the girl continues to pummel her while repeatedly calling her a “bitch.”

By the time police arrived on the scene, officers found the girl suffering from a severe head injury, Clay said.

The victim was then taken to a local hospital, where she was listed in critical condition, according to Fox 2 Now.

Another unidentified 15-year-old girl was later taken into custody on assault charges, Clay said.

An investigation into the fight is ongoing, she noted.

James Clark, the vice president of public safety and community response at the Urban League, called the incident “a glimpse into the mentality and the culture of our young people.”

“The social pressure is to be socially dysfunctional,” he told KSDK.

“Who can be the loudest? Who can be the most disruptive?” he asked, highlighting the need for a change to community values.

Officials with the Hazelwood School District also said, “It is a tragedy anytime our children are hurt.

“Bullying and fighting in the community is an issue for which we all need to take ownership and work towards a resolution for the sake of our children,” school officials said in a statement to Fox 2 Now.

“The Hazelwood School District offers our sincerest condolences to everyone involved and will offer additional emotional support from our support and crisis team to those in need,” they added.

In the meantime, the school officials urged community members to “be kind and respectful of the families involved during this difficult time, and [to] pledge to help work toward the betterment of our entire community.”
