ORANGE COUNTY, Florida. (WOFL FOX 35, Orlando) --Eight Central Florida teenagers were arrested and charged with felony battery after investigators said they beat up a 16 year old girl in order to video tape the incident and post it on the internet.

According to the Polk County Sheriffs department the victim, a 16-year-old Lakeland resident, was staying at the home of one of her attackers during spring break.  At approximately 8:00 pm on March 30th, the victim arrived at the residence and was met by one of the female attackers, and another 17 year old girl. Both began yelling at the victim and threatening her.

The victim retreated to a bedroom and was met by a 15 year girl who had been hiding. That girl began insulting and threatening the victim.  The 15 year old then struck the victim several times in the face, then slammed the victim’s head into the bedroom wall, knocking her unconscious as others were videotaping.

When the victim awoke, she was on the couch in the living room surrounded by a total of 6 teenage girls, including the 16 year old resident, the 17 year old and the 15 year old who had attacked her in the bedroom.

The victim said then all of the suspects began hitting and yelling at her while it was being video taped.  At one point in the video, it is plain to see that the suspects blocked the victim from leaving the residence.

During the incident, deputies said two additional suspects, a 17 year old boy, and 19 year old Stephen Schumaker of Lakeland, acted as “look-outs” while the attack was occurring.

After the attack was over, three of the suspects forced the victim into a vehicle and drove her to another location where she was finally released with a threat from the suspects warning her not to contact law enforcement or she would be beaten even worse.

The victim went to a friend’s home, where she called police and was transported to Lakeland Regional Medical Center by ambulance for injuries sustained as a result of the beating.

On the video, the teenage victim can be seen being beaten while the suspect’s video taped the crime, laughed, and encouraged one another to hurt the victim.

All of the juvenile suspects were transported to the Juvenile Assessment Center. Schumaker was taken to the Polk County Jail.

All suspects were charged with Felony Battery and False Imprisonment.

The three juvenile suspects who forced the victim into the vehicle and drove her to another location were also charged with Felony Kidnapping.

“Shocking - I’ve never seen anything like it,” said Polk County Sheriff Grady Judd. “They lured her into the home for express purpose of filming the attack and posting it on the Internet.  This is outrageous behavior.”
