Disturbing video shows a white teenage girl being viciously beaten in a public park by two black girls after she allegedly used a racial slur toward them during the attack.
In the video, a white teenager is seen flailing around on the ground inside Byram Park in Greenwich, Conn., around 8:30 p.m. on Tuesday while two black teen girls lay down a series of blows on her, according to Snapchat footage obtained by ABC 7.
The victim is then seen being dragged down a hill by one of the assailants as onlookers shout — seemingly egging on the violence — and record the mayhem.
Moments later, the victim is seen sitting up on the ground while surrounded by a swarm of others, yelling back and forth with multiple of them.
The victim then screams “Hit me again” to someone in the crowd and then uses the N-word, the video appears to show.
The crowd then erupts in disbelief as another round of violence breaks out.
The second beating was so severe that the person recording the Snapchat began screaming for the two attackers to “chill” multiple times.
The attackers appeared to beat the victim until she fell unconscious, and they needed to be dragged away by onlookers.
Police say they found the victim — a junior at Greenwich High School — lying on the ground when they responded to calls about the bizarre weekday gathering in the park.
She was then rushed to a local hospital and treated for minor injuries.
What ignited the initial violence is still unknown.
“We’re looking at motives, why people would do these things, so that’s yet to be determined,” Greenwich Police Department Capt. John Slusarz told ABC 7.
Of the nearly two dozen people seen in the Snapchat video, two of them have been arrested and five have been identified as being involved in the attack.
Additional charges against others involved are pending, police said.
“Detectives from our Community Impact Section have identified all the subjects involved in the fight at Byram Park,” the department posted on Facebook Thursday.
“All subjects involved will be arrested and referred to Stamford Superior Court.”
Those suspected to have taken part in the beating are from Greenwich, Stamford, and Port Chester, according to law enforcement.
“It’s a new phenomenon, where you see in the last few years, you know, people are assaulting people,” Greenwich’s First Selectman Fred Camillo told the outlet.
“Some are just vicious, and they’re videotaping as if it’s some type of game.”
Camillo said that there are three different entities of the police department investigating the assault and that the town is taking the attack “seriously.”
