Three Chicago girls were arrested on suspicion of being part of a teen mob that brutally beat a special needs girl in what police described as a"beyond disturbing" attack that was video recorded and posted on social media.
Johnson said that two of the juvenile suspects were arrested Wednesday and charged with felony aggravated assault, and the third was arrested on a charge of mob action. Their names were not released because they are minors. Valdez said that while detectives were investigating the girl's disappearance, the video of her being viciously beaten surfaced Monday on social media and quickly went viral. Police were notified of the video by community activists and the local media.
"If you're dumb enough to post a crime on social media then that shows were your head is," Johnson said. Valdez said the victim was found on Wednesday aboard a Chicago Transportation Authority train when a citizen recognized her from the video. Asked if the victim was sexually assaulted, Johnson said,"In terms of a sexual aspect, we're not prepared to talk about that at this time.
