As RTM previously reported:
The alarming video saw several students attacking the teen and hitting her with a water bottle while she walked with her boyfriend in the school hallway, local outlet Patch reported.
In the 20-second clip, a person is heard yelling: “That’s what you get, you stupid a— b—!” The attackers are seen punching, kicking, and pulling the girl’s hair while others laugh and record the assault, according to ABC 7.
“They think it’s fun to attack people and take videos and post them,” Adriana’s devastated dad, Michael Kuch, told the station. “Getting hit with a water bottle didn’t hurt Adriana, what hurt her was the embarrassment and humiliation, they just kept coming at her.”
“My daughter actually blacks out and they don’t call an ambulance, they take her to the nurse’s office,” Kuch told ABC 7, adding Adriana had “never been in a fight before, she’s 98 pounds, 5-2 and she loves everybody.”
The school district’s Superintendent Triantafillos Parlapanides told the news outlet police were not called after the attack, citing school policy.
