Five teens have been charged in connection with the vicious mob attack of a 15-year-old girl on a Brooklyn sidewalk, police said Saturday.
The boys turned themselves in to police at the 77th Precinct in Crown Heights after the caught-on-camera beatdown showed a group of two dozen youths savagely attacking the girl and — stealing her Air Jordan kicks to boot.
The victim was walking on Utica Avenue near Sterling Place Thursday afternoon when a pack of teens descended on her, punching and kicking her repeatedly in the head as she lay helplessly on the pavement, wild video shows.
Police believe the assault—ending when one teen pried the girl’s Air Jordan 1 retro sneakers from her feet — may have been retaliation for a fight earlier in the day where the victim allegedly beat up another girl at school, law enforcement sources told The Post.
