Teens beat up 15-year-old girl and steal her Air Jordans in Brooklyn
[NYPOST] A group of teenagers beat up a 15-year-old girl and stole her Air Jordan sneakers during a robbery in Brooklyn, surveillance footage released by cops on Friday shows.

The teenager was walking on Utica Avenue near Sterling Place in Crown Heights at 4:10 p.m. Thursday when she was spotted by the dozen youths, cops said.

When she reached the corner, the gang lunged at her and punched and kicked her repeatedly, the video shows.

The clip begins with the victim already on the ground, one of the boys kicking her in the chest and face. A second later, more kids run across the street and continue to beat her up, with one kid leaping onto her and then kicking her in the head, the footage shows.

The appalling 20-second beatdown ends with one kid yanking the victim’s black and white Air Jordan 1s from her feet and leaving her limp on the ground, the footage shows. They also took her cellphone and debit card before running away in several directions, police said.

She was taken to NYC Health & Hospitals/Kings County to be treated for bruising and head trauma, cops said. It was unclear what provoked the attack.

Update: Police were questioning five suspects and have a motive in the vicious mob beating of a 15-year-old girl on a Brooklyn street, law enforcement sources said Friday.

Cops were grilling the teenage boys in Crown Heights Friday after a group of teens savagely attacked the girl Thursday — as retaliation for a fight she got into earlier in the day, according to the sources.

The caught-on-camera beating unfolded after the girl allegedly beat up another girl earlier in the day at school, according to the sources.

The group of teenage attackers were allegedly friends with the girl who the victim had tussled with, law enforcement sources said.

#1 I'm sure they'll find a way to blame 'whitey' for it.

Products of 50 years of Great Society programs. Destroy the family, hide the failures with a boombox of platitudes with "we meant well, aren't we good!".

#2 Tens of thousands of years of foraging. Domestication 'be hard' as they say. A work-in-process (WIP), we must be patient.

#3 Everyone involved should be tried for attempted second degree murder. It’s a miracle the victim wasn’t more injured and a mob attack should not provide innnocence for members going along.

#4 And bail is no longer a problem, of course.

Was going to say, the shoe theft looked like an afterthought.

Whitey should've been picking his own cotton?

#7 Did they tie the laces together and throw them over a telephone wire?
