LOS ANGELES — Los Angeles County sheriff’s detectives are investigating an assault on a 12-year- old middle-school boy in Calabasas who might have been targeted after a Facebook group urged students to beat up redheads, a sheriff’s official said Saturday.
The boy was kicked and hit in two separate incidents on the campus of A.E. Wright Middle School in Calabasas by as many as 14 of his classmates, Lt. Richard Erickson said.
The students who participated in the attack might have been motivated by a Facebook message telling them that Nov. 20 was “Kick a Ginger Day,” Erickson said, but he had few other details about the message.
