Residents of Tricity were shocked by the story of brutal violence against a minor. Police from Gdańsk detained three suspects — two 15-year-old teenagers and an 18-year-old girl, who were tormenting their peer. The incident occurred in mid-April, and the attackers filmed everything that was happening.
It became known about the incident on Thursday, April 16, when a man approached the police station in the Oliwa district. He handed over to the officers two video recordings that his daughter received on the internet. The footage shows a group of young people brutally bullying a boy. Radio Eska spoke with the man who reported the crime
— Rozmawiałem z córką. Bała się, ale wysłała mi te filmy. Następnego dnia poszedłem prosto na policję. To obywatelski obowiązek zgłaszać takie sytuacje, — powiedział pan Michał.
Terrifying footage was recorded a few days earlier — on April 12, presumably on the territory of an abandoned site and in an empty building. The recording shows how a teenager is kicked, beaten, and spat on. He is forced to perform humiliating acts, has grass shoved into his mouth, and his clothes are burned with cigarettes.
— Kiedy zobaczyłem to wideo, byłem w szoku i natychmiast skontaktowałem się z policją, — dodał Michał.
