Autistic teen beaten up in Geneva

Geneva police had to intervene when a 17-year-old, boy, who’s autistic and suffers from a social phobia – was attacked by ten other teens in Petit Saconnex on Friday afternoon.

Witnesses say the boy was struck with sharp objects and baseball bats. He suffered head injuries and needed stitches at the hospital.

Police are not providing any further details – including if there have been any arrests – as all the suspects are under age.
