Disturbing Video Emerges of Beloit Students Attacking Special Needs Child

A disturbing video posted by Lynette Thorpe to Facebook shows a terrifying scene that unfolded in Beloit recently.

The minute-long video shows a group of students beating another student Thorpe described as having "developmental delays and is in all LD classes."

Thorpe mentions, the boy who was beaten was duped into believing that he and the attackers were "going to play basketball."

The victim was then beaten by a group of three to four young men while many watched and cheered. After the beating occurred, Thorpe alleges the victim ran to the school for help. Thorpe says the victim "was then suspended until Tuesday. Mind you this is the kid on the ground trying to cover his head while these other kids stomp on it."

Thorpe later updated the post saying, "3 of the 4 kids have been arrested and the back pack was returned."
