Teen thugs on e-bikes allegedly gang up on man, kick and stomp him, hit him in face with glass bottle — but just 1 arrested

Saturday in the area of 103 Pacific Coast Highway.'Come here on Friday night, on Saturday night. ... It's chaos; it's terror.'Sam El-Said — a business owner — told the station he and his wife were riding home when he noticed a few hundred teens, many of them with e-bikes, gathered on the beach, the boardwalk, and a nearby grassy area.El-Said told KTLA he slowed down to navigate through the crowd, when someone threw a glass bottle that hit him in the face; he added to the station that bottle either shattered on impact or was already broken, and it left him with minor injuries.After he stopped and got off his scooter to see what happened, El-Said told KTLA someone knocked him to the ground from behind, after which as many as six teens kicked and stomped him while he was down.Cellphone video caught the final moments of the alleged attack, and it shows one teen dressed in a dark Playboy hoodie being pulled away from the victim, who was on his hands and knees in the sand.Some teens are heard hooting and laughing on video during the aftermath of the attack.KTLA said that when El-Said rose to his feet, blood was running down his face, red marks were visible near his left temple and cheekbone, and blood also was on the fingers of his left hand.RELATED: Mom of teen thug arrested after body-slamming, head-stomping much smaller girl says he's a 'humble,' 'quiet' Christian Police told the station that El-Said was able to detain one of the teens involved, and that teen was arrested and cited for misdemeanor battery.Authorities told KTLA that the victim declined medical treatment at the scene.El-Said, who also suffered a black eye, noted to the station that he and his wife moved to Huntington Beach three years ago for a better quality of life — and the incident demonstrates to him that law enforcement needs to take a stronger stance against such crime.Come here on Friday night, on Saturday night, to this very spot and see what this looks like, he told KTLA. It's chaos; it's terror. If nothing happens and things don't change, we're going to keep seeing incidents like what happened to me, but far worse.Like Blaze News?
