A trio of assailants zapped a 15-year-old girl with a Taser during a brutal assault in Brooklyn earlier this month, police reported on Monday.
According to police, the three men approached the girl on the sidewalk near 1523 Kings Highway at around 3:30 p.m. on Dec. 11, and tried to engage her in conversation.
When the victim refused to respond, the men became physical — punching and kicking her throughout the body.
One of the suspects then brandished a taser and electrocuted her.
Paramedics rushed the teen victim to Maimonides Hospital in stable condition, where she began her recovery from the attack.
Police arrived on the scene and cuffed two of the suspects, but one of them fled capture — and police are asking for the public’s help in tracking him down.
Anyone with information in regard to this incident is asked to call the NYPD’s Crime Stoppers Hotline at 1-800-577-TIPS (8477) or for Spanish, 1-888-57-PISTA (74782). The public can also submit their tips by logging onto the Crime Stoppers website, on Twitter @NYPDTips.
