A brutal beating near Temple University has students on alert. There are growing concerns after a security guard who witnessed it did not step in.
The attack was caught on video and shows a group of teens beating a man outside the SEPTA station at Broad Street and Cecil B Moore Avenue around 4 p.m. Wednesday.
"A traffic cone was being thrown. They were circling him, hitting him, tugging at him," said Veronica Rin. Temple University Police Association, the officers' union, says a decline in its force means less safety.
