A 15-year-old girl viciously slammed to the ground and stomped on by a teenage boy after refusing his advances has been repeatedly sent video of the stomach-turning attack by twisted tormentors — forcing her to relive it, her mom told The Post.
Lucinda Arroyo, of East Harlem, fears her daughter will be re-traumatized by footage sent by kids who see the sick assault as “entertainment,” she said Thursday.
“She has people sending videos of herself on her phone and I have to take away her phone,” Arroyo fumed. “The video was being passed around like entertainment, and that pissed me off the most. … It’s not entertainment.
“This is not even bullying. [It’s] assault and he could have killed her.”
Arroyo now fears her daughter, whose name The Post has not disclosed, will suffer from bouts of depression and anxiety after watching footage of the shocking caught-on-camera assault.
“She can’t watch that video,” the worried mom said.
“People keep sending it to her, and I’m like, I understand, and she feels very exposed right now.”
The Monday attack left the East Harlem Scholars Academy Charter School ninth-grader with a concussion, bleeding and a potential brain injury, Arroyo said.
The teen is also suffering from crushing headaches and a twisted neck — injuries that will require ongoing physical therapy, according to her mother.
The student-athlete was heading to squash practice when a masked male dressed in all black and wearing black boots attacked her, Arroyo said.
Soon after, disturbing video began spreading on social media that showed the masked brute confronting the girl at East 107th Street and Third Avenue around 3:30 p.m., just after school let out.
The 14-year-old attacker has since been jailed on assault charges.
