Newly surfaced video shows a pair of males attacking and beating a young girl in Brooklyn, police say.
Cops claim the onslaught happened back on Dec. 18 around 8 p.m. in the area of Nostrand Avenue and Avenue Y in Sheepshead Bay. Police said the duo threw a backpack at the 11-year-old girl, sprayed water in her face and threw a plastic bottle at her before punching in the head several times.
Video, which appears to have been recorded on the social media platform Snapchat, shows the pair of suspects attacking the girl on the street at night.
Officials say the two suspects then fled the area, last seen wearing sweaters. The girl suffered minor injuries.
