KABC that her son suffered a concussion and spent days in the intensive care unit with severe injuries, including internal bleeding and a punctured lung.“The doctor was telling me, ‘We didn’t know whether we were going to lose your son or not,'” Frankie said. “He had a tube going through his chest.
They had to collapse a lung to repair the other lung. They had to take a camera in his stomach to check to see if there was anything else going on in his stomach because there was so much blood.”Frankie says her son was not the aggressor in the fight, a detail local police confirmed to KABC. “He’s loved everywhere,” she said. “He’s such an amazing kid that didn’t have to go through what he went through.”The Los Angeles Police Department said some of the juvenile suspects behind the attack have been identified and interviewed by detectives, but no arrests have been reported thus far.
The police department says it’s aware of the widely-circulated video, and is investigating the footage. Although investigators have not reached any conclusions about whether the assault was a hate crime, Frankie believes it was a gang-affiliated hate crime due to some of the language used in the attack.“They kept saying ‘on the dead homies’ while they were kicking him and stabbing him,” she told KABC.Frankie is currently raising funds via a GoFundMe page to help cover the costs of her son’s medical expenses and to help her family relocate to avoid retaliation by gang members for cooperating with police investigators.
