Girl Holding Baby Attacked In Park: Viral Incident Seen As Racially Motivated, $1,000 Reward Offered For Information On Assailant


A young girl holding a baby was attacked in a park, and now the incident has spread across conservative blogs that decried it as a racial attack, with one even offering a $1,000 reward for information on the attacker.

The original video of the assault was uploaded to YouTube on Wednesday, showing two teens in a verbal spat with a young woman sitting on a park bench holding a baby. The pair yell at the girl to stand up, but she does not, and eventually one of them grabbed her by the hair and dragged her from the bench, sending the young child sprawling to the ground.

The girl then continued to beat the mother, punching and kicking her, while the young child looked on. Now the disturbing and brutal assault has gone viral, with millions of views across several video platforms and an angry response from blogs. Many of them pained the attack as racially motivated — the attackers are black, while the victim appears to be white. But the video itself gives no indication the reason for the beating.

There is little context to the video of the girl holding a baby being attacked, and now some are trying to fill in the blanks. The blog The Conservative Treehouse is offering a $1,000 reward for identifying information about the attacker.

“The horrific manner of the attack has impacted many Treepers and discussion participants of this site. Therefore we are offering a reward (currently $500 $1,000) for information about this attack, to include location, which will lead to the identification of the person(s) involved. Our intent is to contact the local authorities with this video and identifying information therein.

“If you have any information, please email thelastrefuge@reagan.com – to the extent we are able, we *guarantee anonymity.”

The blog also passed along information posted to LiveLeak claiming that the baby was injured after striking the pavement.

“The baby sustained head trauma and a concussion according to fb,” the person wrote.

Another comment claimed that the attack happened in Indianapolis and that the child was actually the girl’s brother, but it seems that may be confusing that attack for another viral assault. In March someone uploaded video of a group of teens beating a young girl in a park, and then attacking her very young brother who tried to stop the assault.

Video of the young mother holding a baby being attacked can be seen here, but be warned that there is disturbing violence and bad language.
