A violent attack on a teenage girl that was caught on video by multiple people in Kelowna, B.C., has prompted her father to come forward, demanding answers and justice.

Kelowna RCMP say the attack happened on Friday evening, and that the video has been circulating "widely" online in the southern Interior community, around 270 kilometres east of Vancouver in B.C.'s Okanagan.

RCMP say the attack happened in the area of Boyce-Gyro Beach Park and was one of several incidents of youth committing criminal offences, including assault and mischief, in the area.

He expressed an opinion and that you got butthurt over it... Nothing was misreprented.

Misinformation is presenting a falsehood as fact. This is a basic concept and you have hard distinguishing the two.

Can you quote the comment that demonstrates I am being "butthurt"?

Misinformation is presenting a falsehood as fact. This is a basic concept and you have hard distinguishing the two.

Nothing in the article speaks about the class of the victim, assailants, or their parents.

Do you believe it is okay to blame a group of people for a violent attack before knowing it was carried out by that group of people?
