Claymore: Three girls in court for allegedly stripping and beating teen girl while recording it
Three teen girls have been arrested for a shocking alleged assault on another girl.
NSW Police allege the girls, all aged 13, stripped and beat a 14-year-old girl in Claymore in Sydney’s outer southwest on Friday night and recorded the incident.
Police allege the violence started about 7pm, when three 13-year-old girls approached the other girl at a bus stop before forcing her at knifepoint to the end of Longstaff Way, where she was “punched and kicked”.
