Parents release graphic pictures of son beaten at youth discoGino Hargreaves, who has been sedated into a coma and is on a life support machine, was set upon after leaving an alcohol-free teenage disco in a town centre.
As he walked home, a group of up to three young men forced the schoolboy to the ground and kicked him as he lay defenceless.
Onlookers described hearing a "sickening sound" as the victim received a severe blow to the head.
The teenager is in intensive care at Hope Hospital, Salford, Greater Manchester, following the attack in Blackburn, Lancs, last Thursday. His family has remained at his bedside.
At a press conference, his grandmother, Diane Campbell, said: "This family is totally devastated and in a state of shock as we watch our son, grandson, nephew and cousin fighting for his life on a life-support machine.
"I would appeal to anyone who has any information to please come forward and contact the police for the sake of Gino. We have to stop this happening to another family."
She added: "There is no honour in this attack, just the opposite in fact. It brings great shame on our community who are producing such cowardly vindictive thugs, because who else other than a thug would treat a child in this way?" ......
..... Police believe three young men of Asian origin may have been involved. (Which in media terms, means you could bet your bottom dollar that THEY were involved and the motive was because he's white)
