An Ambridge Junior High School student, accused of attacking a fellow student, and a classmate who is accused of recording the attack have been charged, police said.

A 14-year-old student is accused of attacking another 14-year-old last week behind the school, Ambridge police said. The victim was knocked to the ground and repeatedly kicked in the head while pleading for the attack to stop, police said.

A 12-year-old student recorded the attack, which was then posted on YouTube. The video showed other teens watching the fight. The video has since been removed from the site.
