WARNING! Disturbing Video Of Assault On A Child Is Hard To Watch

The New York Police Department (NYPD) is looking for seven young men who were involved in a brutal attack on a 14-year-old boy in a Brooklyn subway station.

The NYPD is asking the public’s help in identifying the individuals who took part in the March 14 assault which they filmed and uploaded to social media, according to a police statement.

Six young men can be seen punching and kicking the teenage victim while a seventh young man filmed the attack while flashing a symbol with his hand, as shown in a video shared by the NYPD.

While the perpetrators’ faces were obscured in the video, four of them were captured clearly in other images shared by the NYPD.

The 14-year-old victim, whose identity was not disclosed required medical treatment after the attack, according to the NYPD.

New York City Mayor Eric Adams recently launched a new safety program aimed at reducing crime in the subway system following a string of violent attacks. The program, which began Feb. 18, involves increased police patrols in “high-priority” areas and the removal of the mentally ill and homeless individuals inhabiting the city’s public transportation system.
