The police have arrested four boys in California who have been charged of beating a man with skateboards, reports the Huffingtonpost on May 13, 2013.
The 25-year-old man beaten with skateboards is in an extremely critical condition. They could be charged with the attempted murder of the victim.
The victim was with his girlfriend at that time. Reportedly, the woman tried to put off a fight on Friday night and the skateboarders turned on the woman.
Her boyfriend stepped in to save her, and he was pursued to a nearby coin laundry and beaten with skateboards.
His condition became critical due to bruises by metal and wheels of the skateboards, and he was immediately escorted to the hospital.
Actually seven youths under age 18 were detained, and four out of them were arrested thereafter.
The police told that all four kids who have been taken into custody are already on probation for various crimes.
The police have not yet revealed the identity of the victim but have proclaimed that there may be a few more arrests in the coming week.
There was another witness of the incident named Sandy Nguyen, who works at a nail salon near the laundry.
She said “I was so scared, so I locked the door. They used their skateboards to beat the boy in the head.”
