WOMAN BRUTALLY BEATEN BEHIND JFK MUSEUM: Victim in & out of consciousness after kicked, cut, left bleeding… beaten to a pulp! [HYANNIS NEWS SHOCK VIDEO]
HYANNIS – [DEVELOPING] — HN was on scene first and it was one of the worst beatings I’ve seen in some time…
Just prior to midnight, Barnstable squad cars were dispatched to the rear of the JFK Museum for a woman who had just been attacked. HN was nearby and arrived on scene shortly after the attack.
As you will see in the following HN dashcam and video footage, a male “friend” was leaning over the female victim who had been beaten to a pulp, her face swollen beyond recognition, in and out of consciousness, bloody, confused, at times crying out from nauseating pain…
The video begins with a HN dashcam pointed toward the scene, at a distance at first, with HN asking questions to get rescue rolling as soon as possible, but also to ensure the man wasn’t one of the suspects… the nearest cruisers were coming from a ways away… (and the video time lapses have been edited out)…
The woman had been bludgeoned, reportedly kicked… and one of the suspects reportedly had a knife…
Cape Cod Hospital was placed on a trauma alert as Hyannis Rescue quickly secured the victim on a stretcher and rushed her to the ER. Her injuries were very serious…
About 15 minutes later, the HN Footage shifts to the parking lot of 7-Eleven on North Street, where a vehicle was surrounded and a male briefly detained while officers asked questions and photographed potential evidence. A female can be heard yelling at HN to go away… but as the evening wore on, HN learned she would become one of the main suspects… [DEVELOPING]
The female victim was undergoing tests at CCH and her current condition is unknown. At the time of this report, the investigation remains active and ongoing, and HN will provide official updates as they become available.
