The scenes are shocking: A boy in a football jersey is standing at the bus stop in Witten-Annen (North Rhine-Westphalia). In front of him is another boy who is at least a head shorter. “Apologize!” someone calls out, outside the camera’s field of view.

Visibly intimidated, the boy in the jersey mumbles an apology to the teenager in front of him. Despite this, the teenager starts to beat up his victim, first giving him a slap in the face. The thug and another offender beat the boy with punches and kicks. The smaller of the two attackers repeatedly rams his knee into his victim’s upper body.

After the larger of the two attackers lets go of his victim, the smaller one continues to beat the boy as if in a frenzy. The larger attacker eventually comes back and hits the boy in the jersey on the head.

What is also shocking is that no one intervenes. Several other young people are present, perhaps waiting for the bus.
