A Gang Of Youths Beat A 63-Year-Old Bloody For No Reason Near A Milwaukee McDonald's, Assaulted 2 More For The Hell Of It

A 63-year-old and two other adults were attacked by a group of youths, leaving one with serious injuries on Wednesday afternoon, with Milwaukee police arresting three teen boys, so far.

The attack happened at a McDonald's in the 700 block of South First Street, according to family of the victims.

Police said they were called to the scene around 4 p.m. and subsequently arrested two 14-year-old boys and a 15-year-old boy. They continue to seek additional suspects in an active investigation.

The two other adults, ages 62 and 53, were medically treated at the scene, police said in a news release.

Milwaukee Mayor Cavalier Johnson released a statement on the incident on Thursday, saying he was appalled by the "actions of the young people involved in yesterday's assaults in the Bradley Tech neighborhood."

"The attack on the victims was without any conceivable justification. The victims have my prayers for a speedy recovery," Johnson's statement said.

The videos posted on social media show a group of youths kicking, punching and stomping on a man who is on the ground. Another video showed other adults running from the group and the man in the other video getting up from the ground with a bloodied face.

The mayor's statement referred to Milwaukee Public Schools' Lynde and Harry Bradley Technology and Trade School and the ongoing effort to return police to the district. "It is also well past time for the restoration of police officers at schools. I ask MPS to address this with urgency," the statement said.

An MPS spokesperson said the district "is aware of an incident that happened in the community yesterday involving a group of teenagers" and that it did not occur on school property.
