VIDEO: Teens brutally attack man at gas station

Apr 15, 2015, 4:43 PM

A surveillance video has caught the unfortunate moment a Tennessee man was beaten up by a group of high schoolers at a gas station.

KFOR reports Orrden Williams, Jr. says he was attacked by dozens of teens from Northwest Prep Academy at a BP station just outside of Memphis.

The students rushed at the door of the station, but workers held the door shut. Then, Williams, Jr. ran to his car, dodging punches from the teens. He said his baby was in his vehicle, and one of the teens threw punches just feet from the child’s head.

It’s not clear why the attack occurred or what actions will be taken. Williams, Jr. has bruises all over his upper body.
