BETHESDA, MD – After losing to Walter Johnson High School 21-14 in varsity football last night, a violent fight broke out two blocks from Bethesda-Chevy Chase High School. Several students were injured in the incident and required medical attention.
A mob of students violently assaulted two white victims. One of the victims was knocked out on the ground as the mob continued beating them mercilessly, according to video footage shared on Twitter.
The fight broke out shortly after 8:30 pm. just blocks away from the school near the Bethesda Metro at Commerce Lane and Old Georgetown Road.
Commenters on the social media platform are asking police to investigate the attack as a hate crime. The Montgomery County Police Department has not commented yet regarding this incident.
At one point, a second victim who was beaten mercilessly while on the ground had their shoes stolen by attackers.
“The black students should have brought out the folding chairs and really served it up to that racist white student. White peoples think they can do whatever the fuck they want and surprised when black people rise up and fight back. Nah bitch, this isn’t the 1960’s,” one person wrote on Twitter.
It is unknown at this time the extent of the injuries or whether any charges have been filed or arrests made. School officials have not yet made a statement regarding the incident.
