When will these awful incidents be a thing of the past? When will the bystanders stop inflaming situations and instead work to actively prevent further damage from occurring?
Police are investigating a vicious assault on a 13-year-old girl, who was bashed by a classmate in front of a cheering crowd in Sydney’s south-west.
The brutal attack was filmed by a Year 12 student, revealing the horrific ordeal which saw Jaimee-Lee Morecroft kicked, punched and dragged her by her hair by a fellow Year 8 student.
Eagle Vale High School student Jaimee-Lee can be heard pleading with the attacker as she protects her head, insisting: ‘I never said anything about your brother.’
In the lead up to the attack, Nine News reports Jaimee-Lee was receiving threatening messages on social media.
Her family are distressed about the assault and want charges to be laid against the teenager responsible.
‘She could have been killed,’ Jaimee-Lee’s grandmother Shirley Williams told Nine News.
NSW Police confirm they are looking into the incident.
‘Macquarie Fields command have seen the video depicting an alleged assault at Claymore,’ NSW Police told Daily Mail Australia.
‘Police have launched an investigation but no arrests or charges have been laid.’
