ATLANTA, Georgia — Statement From Myriah Pointer (the female who was beat in the video):
“This past weekend I was set up by the two girls I called my best friends and one of they cousins. I was held down and stomped until I was unconscious. Once I gained consciousness they were still beating and stomping me. This went on for about 3 hours and then they threw and cracked my phone and hid my battery for another and held me hostage! I am BLESSED to be alive and I need justice to be served because I DID NOT deserve this. If you can get the attention of any news station, attorney, or newspaper please pass this story on because Atlanta Police aren’t doing taking this as serious as it is. I have fatal facial& scalp confusions, post-concussion syndrome, subconjunctival hemorrhage, and busted blood vessels!”
Pointer was beaten unconscious and held hostage after an argument over a hamburger.
A child can be seen present during the attack.
Myriah Pointer, 23, said her so-called friends kicked and punched her while recording the attack.
“I’m more hurt emotionally than physically,” Pointer said. “I was unconscious while they were beating me.”
Pointer has two black eyes, a chipped tooth and a concussion after the women, who she thought were her friends, beat her and videotaped it.
“By someone you called your best friend,” Pointer told Channel 2’s Tom Jones. “It was about a burger.”
Pointer said she was hanging out with her friends at an apartment complex on Saturday when one of the women accused her of sitting on her Whopper Jr.
The attacker sent Pointer an apology after she realized she may be in trouble.
Police say they are aware of the video and are investigating.
