The family of a Scots schoolboy allegedly lured into a field and 'beaten like a dog' by a gang of bullies have said they fear a child will die in Scotland before action is taken to tackle shocking incidents of youth violence.The 13-year-old boy was reportedly attacked by a group of teens in Fort William in the Highlands on Thursday night, while a number of others filmed the sickening scene on their phones. The disturbing footage, which was circulated online afterwards, shows the boy lying on the grass while he is kicked and beaten on the head and body multiple times.
