Mum, 15, attacked by girl gang in Whitworth
4:57pm Wednesday 16th February 2011 in Rossendale
A 15-year-old girl was attacked as she pushed her baby son in a buggy.
Police said the girl was pushing her 14-month-old son in Market Street, Whitworth, when the incident happened between 5.30pm and 5.45pm on January 26.
The victim claimed she was followed by up to six girls aged around 16 or 17-years-old and then confronted by a further two girls as she turned into Market Street.
She alleged that the girls dragged her to the floor by her hair and assaulted her.
Officers said a motorist stopped and helped the girl, prompting her attackers to run off in the direction of the Half Way House.

What makes a gang of teenage girls do something like that to a young mother with her baby? She must know them. It's like Dawn of the Dead out there.

15year old Mother of a 14month child.
16year old girls acting like a pack of wild animals.
And finally, an holier than thou comment from Adelaide, SA, where 'home invasion' from criminals is so prevalent people feel the need to arm themselves. See-

what has age got to do with being a parent this girl could be an excellent mum for all the detractors know and she's a lot more in common with her child than someone in their late 50's.

I'm really pleased for you that ran away from this country and made a better life for yourself instead of helping improve he country which gave you the opportunity to leave it. But to then log on here and make comments like that just makes you a smug git.
