Scots mum begs people to stop sharing graphic footage of son's violent attack

A mum has begged people to stop sharing graphic footage of her teenage son being violently attacked in a Fife park.

The 15-year-old boy spent days in hospital was left bloodied and bruised after being punched and kicked in the face at Riverside Park in Glenrothes on Saturday, February 25. Five males aged between 14 and 16, have now been charged with attempted murder in connection with the incident, which was filmed by onlookers.

The mum, who cannot be named for legal reasons, issued the heartfelt plea for members of the public to “do the decent and human thing” by deleting the videos from their phones and social media.
