https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-62722082Children as young as 11 have been subjected to brutal attacks by teenagers in a Lancashire town - with the assaults filmed and shared on social media.
Victims' mothers say police aren't doing enough to stop the group and have taken matters into their own hands.
The mother of one girl said she was told her daughter could have been one blow away from losing her life.
Lancashire Police say they take assault and anti-social behaviour seriously.
The BBC spoke to eight sets of parents in Chorley whose children were violently assaulted.
The parents believe the police have not responded fast enough, and say that's why they feel compelled to share their footage further - and have asked us to show it. They also want to illustrate the seriousness of the attacks.
It's thought the same group of teenagers was responsible for all the incidents.
The videos show children being dragged to the ground - squealing and crying out as they try to shield their heads from kicks and punches. Voices of others can be heard, off-camera, egging-on the attackers.
