Baltimore MD - Richard Fletcher severely beaten by a group of 7 high school teens May 8, 2015
DUNDALK, Md. (WJZ) — A Dundalk man (Richard Fletcher) is viciously beaten in front of his own home. The whole thing was caught on tape. Now, seven people are under arrest, but it hasn’t eased fears in the community.
All but one of those seven suspects are teenagers. They face a range of charges, including attempted murder.
Disturbing cell phone video shows 61-year-old Rick Fletcher punched and kicked repeatedly as he drops face first to the ground. Broken eye sockets, a broken nose, busted ribs and a brain bleed left him in the hospital for days.
“He wasn’t trying to intervene in their disagreement. He just wanted them to stop fighting and move away from his car,” said Cpl. Wachter.
“A lot of the residents are still afraid. They’re very afraid,” said Georgia Bartrum, Harbor View Neighborhood Association.
Neighbors say students walking to a bus stop have wreaked havoc on their community for years.
Fletcher only went outside after seeing two girls fighting on top of his car.
“It’s really sad because all you want to do is enjoy your home. You should never live in fear,” said Bartrum.
Community members are now pleading with local lawmakers for help. An MTA bus route has already been changed to try and prevent the students from walking down those streets.
Fletcher is out of the hospital, but neighbors say he has a long road to recovery.
This man was not breaking the law, yet he was almost beaten to death by civilians.
That is called Anarchy, and it is very wrong in every way.
