An attack by two teenagers on four people, including an 11-year-old girl at a Florida gas station, was captured on camera and was released by the local sheriff’s office.
The victims told deputies that they didn’t previously know their attackers, and the attack was seemingly at random, according to the office. There is no motive for the assault.
Napiontek is accused of pulling “11-year old girl out of the truck” and beating her, the office said.
“Deputies pulled the surveillance footage from the store and easily identified the assailants. At the conclusion of the investigation, Napiontek and Clanton were located, arrested and transported to the Marion County Jail,” the office stated.
Napiontek was charged with battery and aggravated child abuse, and Clanton was charged with assault on a law enforcement officer and battery.
The incident was captured Sept. 22, and the office released the footage on Facebook several days later, amassing tens of thousands of views.
According to the office, “Clanton was actually out on bond at the time of this attack for a separate incident that occurred” in August. In that incident, he approached a 17-year old and hit him several times, forcing the victim to get seven stitches on his face.
That incident was also described as an “unprovoked attack.” Clanton was charged with child abuse, the office said.
Other details about the attack were not provided by the sheriff’s office.
