Mum horrified by teen attack video
Paisley Daily Express
|April 16, 2025
The mum of a schoolgirl has spoken of her horror after the youngster was filmed being dragged through a park by her hair after being battered unconscious by a gang of feral teens.
Hope Lyden, 13, was brutally beaten by a group of girls after she agreed to meet a friend at Boden Boo in Erskine, at the weekend.
The teen had been standing at a bus stop talking to her pal before she was approached by a girl who was not known to her on Friday night.
The girl accused Hope of speaking about her before another unknown teen came up and promised to help her “get away” after a spat broke out.
But as they reached a nearby field, Hope suffered a sudden blow to the back of her head that knocked her unconscious. Horrific footage, which has gone viral on social media, shows three girls raining punches and kicks on her as she lies helpless.
Dozens of onlookers could be heard laughing at the sickening scene as they stood filming it on their phones.
