After writing about a vicious attack on a twelve-year-old girl NZ media have been strangely reluctant to provide a description of the race of her attacker or their age.
Person referred to Youth Aid after 12-year-old attacked outside McDonald’s
One person has been spoken to by police and will be referred to Youth Aid after a 12-year-old girl was attacked outside an Auckland McDonald’s on Saturday, police have confirmed.
[…] The young girl was at McDonald’s in Glenfield on the North Shore with three classmates enjoying a meal and laughing in conversation, when two girls at another table “mistakenly” believed they were being laughed at, the girls’ sister Rein Crystal said.
[…] the girl proceeded to physically attack her. They kicked her in the leg, pinned her to the ground, and repeatedly kicked her in the face and forehead, causing her to bleed.”
[…] When the family arrived the young girl was bleeding, with “blood scattered everywhere”.

She was taken to White Cross before being transferred to Auckland City Hospital where she was admitted for four hours and discharged on Saturday evening.
Crystal said her sister’s face had sustained damage and swelling, including a deep cut to an eyebrow which caused the majority of the bleeding.
