FBI REPORT
Two young boys on their way home from a doctors visit got off
of a city bus at the wrong stop. Although they didnt recognize
the area they were in, they thought, no big deal, well just
ask someone for directions and head on home. It wasnt that simple.
Before they could do that, some neighborhood boys started to tease
them and told the lost boys that they were not liked or wanted in
that area of town. After a few minutes, the neighborhood boys left.
But they came back a shorttime later with a baseball bat.

The
lost boys were scared and, before they could get away, the neighborhood
boys beat them on their heads and backs with the bat, simply because
they didnt want the lost boys in their neighborhood. Even after
one of the two lost boys fell to the ground in
pain, the neighborhood boys continued to beat him. After a long time,
the beating stopped and the neighborhood boys left. Luckily, the lost
boys survived the beating and the other boys were arrested
by the police and taken to the police station because the police had
reason to believe they committed a crime. |
