Shocking footage uploaded to social media Sunday night appears to show about a dozen youths forcing their way into an apartment to attack a woman and her mother.
Given that it is 2021, the attackers ignorantly filmed the entire thing.

Although the footage shows the whole ordeal, the story behind what led to the attack is still developing. According to reports that have been circulating on social media, that victim was attacked by the mob due to accusing a friend of theirs of sexually assaulting her. The accusations were brought forth on the social platform TikTok where both parties have heavy followings.
The main video of the incident opens in an elevator as a group of Somali youths, some wearing face masks apparently to conceal their identity, approach their target. After a minor confrontation with a man walking in the apartment building’s hallway, the majority of the group stands back as two individuals knock on the targeted individual’s door.
After the door is opened, the mob streams into the apartment, “How did you get into my house?” the targeted individual is heard asking before the beating commences. The mob can be seen raining blows on the young woman and her mother for about a minute. One victim tries to cover her head while she’s attacked on a couch. The other is thrown to the floor.
The first video of the attack posted to Twitter has garnered nearly 100,000 views as users across the nation react to the footage.
Ahh see what you started? Are you not satisfied with the clout you’ve received from this unfortunate situation.
Spot the similarities below, and then report this tweet until it’s removed. This person is running a hate campaign against us by working with right wing media. pic.twitter.com/TwIeBkX6Ry

Many members of the Somali community have also responded, viciously condemning the attackers — many of whom have already been identified by online vigilantes attempting to bring justice.
