An Arlington, Texas teen is recovering after she said she was beaten, robbed, and left on the side of the road by friends, reports WFAA ABC 8 News.
Kayla Horne said the incident happened in the early morning hours on Sunday, Jan. 19 in Fort Worth, Tx.
“I thought I was going to die,” Kayla said to the news outlet, recalling the horrowing experience.
The 18-year-old said she and another friend who is also 18 met with a group of people.
Horne said the group started drinking and then went to an after-hours nightclub. She said she didn’t go in because she wasn’t old enough, so she stayed in the car. At one point, Horne said she started to feel sick and threw up in the car. When the group came back, Horne said they were upset.
The teen said one of the girls in the group started randomly attacking her.
"Out of nowhere, one of the girls punched me in my mouth and jaw,” she told the news outlet. “Just kept getting beat on and beat on.”
Horne said the suspects stole her money, phone, and jewelry before pushing her out of the car and leaving her on the street.
Police said the suspects are facing charges of aggravated robbery, but Horne's aunt, Jessica Alexis, wants more severe charges.
“I don’t know why they’re not getting charged with more because they tried to kill her,” she said.
As Horne's face begins to heal, her trust is now broken.
“Something needs to be done,” said Alexis.
Floyd Patterson (January 4, 1935 – May 11, 2006) was an American professional boxer who competed from 1952 to 1972, and twice reigned as the world heavyweight champion between 1956 and 1962. At the age of 21, he became the youngest boxer in history to win the title, and was also the first heavyweight to regain the title after losing it. As an amateur, he won a gold medal in the middleweight division at the 1952 Summer Olympics. He has been named among the top 15 heavyweights of all time.
Patterson was born in North Carolina and raised in Brooklyn. He died on May 11, 2006, at his home in New Paltz, N.Y., at 71. He had Alzheimer's disease for about eight years and prostate cancer.
