Shocking video of teen being beaten during Marrickville, Sydney home invasion

WARNING: Disturbing content.
A group of youths filmed themselves as they brutally beat and stabbed a defenceless teen during a Marrickville home invasion earlier this year, as the confronting vision can be revealed for the first time.
Police were called to a Frazer Street home in Sydney’s inner west on April 16, responding to reports of a group of people bursting into the property and assaulting a 16-year-old boy.
The boy was taken to hospital after being cut and stabbed and three 15-year-olds and a 16-year-old were arrested over their alleged roles in the incident.
Video of the incident obtained by NewsWire shows the group of youths pull the 16-year-old to the ground and viciously assault him.


In the video, the group are seen climbing over a wall into the property, with one of them saying “what c***, what” as they chase down the victim and pull him to the ground as he attempts to escape over a back fence.
One of the youths, who are all wearing face coverings, strikes the victim in the head as he’s pulled to the ground.
“My knife broke lad, no,” the youth filming the video says as he picks up the blade which had snapped off the handle.
The group punch, slap, stomp and kick the defenceless teen and berate him as he puts his hands over his head to defend himself.


At one point, the boy’s dog attempts to come to his aid.
“Don’t talk s***, yeah,” one of the youths says in the terrifying two minute and 10 second video.
“I swear to f***ing God if you talk shit again I’m going to stab your f***ing head,” he says as they leave the boy lying on the ground with blood flowing from a cut on his arm.
The group can then be seen in the video making their way through the property and exiting out the front door.
One of the 15-year-olds was charged with a string of offences including affray, enter enclosed land without a lawful excuse, armed with intent to commit an indictable offence and custody of a knife in a public place.
Another 15-year-old was charged with affray, enter enclosed land without a lawful excuse and participating in a criminal group.
The other 15-year-old has been charged with assault occasioning actual bodily harm, affray, trespass and participating in a criminal group.
The 16-year-old boy was charged with affray, trespass and participating in a criminal group.
They all remain before the courts.
