A Missouri girl was critically injured in a fight captured on video near Hazelwood East High School, the St. Louis County Police Department said. Video of Friday’s altercation has since been shared by thousands of people online. It shows a girl getting thrown to the ground and punched in the head by another teen girl, who slams her head onto a concrete sidewalk multiple times. Other teens were fighting around the injured girl as she lay on the ground shaking, the video shows. It’s not clear what led to the fight, and police are not publicly identifying those involved. But police confirmed the viral video is connected to the investigation, according to police spokesperson Vera Clay. Officers responded to a call at 2:32 p.m. Friday for a “fight in progress near the intersection of Norgate Drive and Claudine Drive,” St. Louis County police said in a statement Monday. “Responding officers located a juvenile female suffering a severe head injury. The victim was transported to an area hospital where she remains in critical condition,” police said.

Janet Mills and her allies are counting on a gender gap to narrow Platner’s wide lead ahead of the June 9 primary to decide who will face incumbent Republican Sen. Susan Collins.
