A 13-year-old girl in northern England was subjected to a brutal attack on the subway that lasted 15 minutes. Footage shared on social media has sparked a significant public outcry.
A young girl named Ruby boarded the train at Whitley Bay station on the Tyne and Wear metro last Friday. Shortly after, she was attacked by two young women who entered the carriage. The footage circulating on social media shows the young girl being kicked, punched, and having her hair pulled.
Ruby's aunt, Tammie Barclay, said, "They held my niece hostage and demanded money to stop the beating. Even after she gave them 10 pounds, they continued to attack her. There are places on her head where her hair has been pulled out." As a result of the attack, Ruby's wrist was broken.
According to a spokesperson for Northumbria Police, the police received a report near Wallsend Metro Station at 19:55 on Friday evening. By the time the police arrived at the scene, the attackers had already fled. Ruby, who was taken to the hospital, has completed her treatment and is currently receiving police support.
Following the incident, Ruby's aunt launched an online fundraising campaign to replace her niece's money and torn jacket. The initial target of just 30 pounds was quickly surpassed, and the amount raised has exceeded 3,900 pounds. Barclay thanked supporters, saying, "Please stop the donations. It has been more than enough for Ruby."
The police are continuing their investigation to find the suspects involved in the incident. Local community leaders have called for stricter measures against the rising incidents of violence among young people.
