A teen of Asian decent was brutally attacked in Chicago. One seventeen year old male, 2 sixteen year old boys, three fifteen year old boys, and a fifteen year old girl were all charged as juveniles with one count of robbery and one count of aggravated battery, except Raymond Palomino, the seventeen year old. He was charged as an adult with robbery and aggravated battery. The attackers took a video of them punching and kicking the victim and taunting him with racial slurs and posted it on YouTube. The victim was eventually able to run away and was taken to a local hospital, treated and released to go home. Police say that the attack did not appear to be racially motivated.
This is incredibly awful. The video that those psychotic kids took was horrible to watch! It was seven against one! How is that fair at all?! Those kids need to be put away, because this was ridiculous!
