Ballard High student assaulted at bus stop

A Ballard High School student was assaulted and harassed after trying to leave a gang, reports SeattleCrime.com. According to the blog, who cites the police report, the girl was waiting at a bus stop after school on December 1 when a female member of the MS-13 gang came up and hit her, pushed her and pulled her hair. The harassment didn’t stop there. After getting off the Metro bus and waiting to transfer, a group of men pulled up in a Honda Civic and tried to pull her in but she was able to fight them off. The website goes on to say that, “The girl told officers that she recently tried to leave MS-13, but that members of the gang ‘were upset with her’ and might be looking for revenge.”
