Disturbing security footage captured the moment a helpless man was beaten and robbed by a large group of teenagers in downtown Cincinnati. But all the suspects remain on the streets, thanks in part to a disgraceful “justice” system.
WLWT, which obtained the security footage, reported that the horrific assault occurred on January 23 around 8 p.m. on E. 6th Street.
Footage captured by WLWT shows the victim walking on the sidewalk when he was suddenly ambushed from behind by youths. He was hit once on the back of the head, causing him to fall.
The thugs started punching and kicking him several times while he was on the ground. The victim appears to be moaning during the assault.
One of the teens then snatches the man's phone and drives away with most of the crew. A few thugs stayed behind to do some kicking while the victim shouted: “Help me!”
He watches:
A white man was ambushed and brutally assaulted by a mob of black teens in Cincinnati on Thursday.
Only two of the attackers were arrested.

The man somehow escaped with only minor injuries despite the ferocious attack, according to WLWT.
Cincinnati police said two people were arrested the same night in connection with the incident: 18-year-old Jaden Shaw and a 14-year-old.
But Shaw was released after posting $10,000 bail the next day. The younger teen was taken to a juvenile detention center before a judge released him back onto the streets the next day as well.
The municipal judge who allowed Shaw to bond is Judge Donte Johnson, according to WKRC.
Ken Cooper, president of the Fraternal Order of Police Queen City Lodge #69, issued a Facebook post dripping with anger about the weak justice system that allowed these thugs to continue terrorizing the streets of Cincy.
These judges let these two people out. They're both out walking in the street today. In fact, one of them was seen in the same area last night, roaming freely. I think (they) might be looking for another victim.
When will judges protect the citizens of this county? It's a shame.
