Last week, 15-year-old Kaylee Gain from Missouri endured a brutal assault by another teenager near her St. Louis high school. The aggressor repeatedly slammed Gain’s head into the ground during the altercation. Gain’s parents reported that she sustained a skull fracture and frontal lobe damage from the attack and is currently in critical condition, fighting hard to survive.
In a viral video of the incident, Gain was seen convulsing on the ground before emergency medical technicians arrived. Her family disclosed that she suffered from significant brain bleeding and swelling. The full extent of her injuries will remain unknown until she regains consciousness.
The 15-year-old assailant, whose identity has not been disclosed publicly, was apprehended and charged with assault. She was transported to the St. Louis County Family Court and has remained in custody as of Sunday afternoon. Attorney General Andrew Bailey condemned the violent assault and advocated for the assailant, who he characterized as “evil,” to be prosecuted as an adult in court for repeatedly striking Gain’s head against the concrete in such an animalistic manner.
The graphic video can be viewed below; viewer discretion is advised due to the graphic nature of the violence:
