Scottish schoolgirl knocked unconscious outside school as woman cheers on attacker

Shocking footage has captured the moment a teenage girl was booted unconscious outside a school while an adult woman cheered on her attacker.

The incident, which took place near Kirkcaldy High School in Fife on Friday, March 3, is the latest in a sickening series of violent incidents involving kids in Scotland report the Record.

The video shows the victim lying on the ground while her attacker punches and kicks her as a crowd of pupils film the scene on their phones. A woman, understood to be a relative of the attacker, can be seen and heard instructing the culprit to carry out the abuse.

She is heard referring to one the victim as "it" and encourages the attacker to "kick its c**t in."

She says: "Pull its hood, kick its c**t in! Pull it by its hood, that's it!"

"Drag it to the ground, to the ground, punch its face in.”

The victim is repeatedly kneed in the face and pulled to the ground before she then suffers a series of blows to her torso as the attacker grabs her hood and strikes her fists downwards.

At one point, another girl attempts to step in to break up the fight, but she is stopped and pushed away by the woman.

The girls are eventually split up by onlookers, but as the attacker is pulled away from the scene, she can be seen lunging towards the victim on the ground again and forcefully kicking her in the head, knocking her out in the process.

The clip then abruptly stops as the group of youths can be seen towering over the unconscious victim.

It is understood the schoolgirl was rushed to a nearby hospital following the incident, where she went on to suffer a number of seizures from her injuries.

A local source said: "She was in hospital but she was released later that night after suffering multiple seizures from the kick to the head."

Officers from Police Scotland confirmed they are investigating the assault. Inquiries currently remain ongoing and there have been no arrests.

Meanwhile, the clip has been described as "sickening" by local MSP Willie Rennie, who raised concerns over the adult's conduct.

Deborah Davidson, Education Manager at Fife Council, said: "I can confirm there was an incident at Kirkcaldy High School on Friday. This is now a police matter and therefore it'd be inappropriate for us to comment further.

"I would add that aggression and violence are not tolerated in any of our schools. Through our engagement with young people and families we continue to reinforce the impact and fallout of bullying and physical violence."
