4 teens in Florida charged after video shows victim being violently thrown to ground.

Four teenagers have been arrested and a fifth is pending after a video surfaced of a Florida high school student being attacked and then slammed head-first into concrete. The incident occurred outside of Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Coral Springs, Florida, leaving the victim unconscious and suffering skull damage.

Chinua Leefatt, 15, Jordan Thompson, 16, Caleb Hensley, 17, and Sylvester Hicks Jr, 16 have all been arrested and charged with felony battery. Jahmeer Beautziel, 17, is the fifth suspect that is still pending. Four of them attend Marjory Stoneman, while Leefatt goes to Coral Glades High School.

Last week, Marjory Stoneman Principal Michelle Kefford sent an email to parents expressing her hope to expel the four students, as reported by The New York Post. “We are also doing everything we can through district processes to ensure these students do not return to our campus,” she wrote in the email, according to WPLG.

The Coral Springs Police Department posted an update regarding the arrest on its Facebook page, and TMZ posted the video of the interaction. Barrington Leefatt, the father of one of the suspects, expressed skepticism and insisted that his son, Chinua, was attacked previously. “That kid is not innocent, I’m telling you,” he said, adding that he has video of his son being attacked first.

Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School is no stranger to being in the news. In 2018, a deadly mass shooting occurred, leaving 14 students and three teachers dead. The student responsible for the shooting, Nikolas Cruz, was given a sentence of 17 life terms in prison last year for the event that took place on Valentine’s Day. Cruz headed into the school armed with an AR-15 assault rifle and started shooting people in the building.

It is devastating to see such violence inflict a school that has already seen too much tragedy. The Coral Springs Police Department is working hard to ensure justice is served to those involved in this incident and to make sure that all students feel safe and secure in their learning environment.
