"The gang snatched her phone from her, smashed her iPhone 15, then attacked her, stamping on her head, repeatedly kicking her in her head.

"She was with her best friend, who also got assaulted. My daughter could have been killed. Apparently, it was all captured on CCTV, and witnesses said they had never seen anything like it.

"Witnesses said they were repeatedly kicking her in the head, stomping on her head, its horrendous!

“It made their stomach turn. Please could any witnesses come forward then I can get justice for my girl.”

The mum said her daughter went to hospital after the attack and had several egg shaped lumps all over her head, and was badly bruised on her legs, arms, and ribs.

The hospital confirmed severe concussion.

The mum said: “This needs to stop, my daughter should be able to go to the cinema and be safe.”

Police said the attack was reported to them and enquiries are ongoing.
