YEP Says: Such savagery is sickening to hear

This thuggery is disturbing. Can this really be the first time these boys have carried out such a crime? If they are capable of such savagery, what else might they do?

Anyone with information must ring the police as soon as possible. The sooner these boys are before the courts, and receiving punishment and treatment, the better.
