The Baltimore State’s Attorney’s Office on Tuesday charged a 15-year-old as an adult with attempted murder in a robbery and attack last week in Southeast Baltimore.

Police also arrested an 18-year-old on charges of attempted murder, armed robbery, use of a firearm during the commission of a crime of violence and related offenses.

The 66-year-old man was attacked late Thursday evening in the 200 block of South Madeira Street, according to police. The man told police that one of his attackers had a handgun and several people began beating him, knocking him to the ground. The group then took his property and fled. The man was treated for his injuries at a local hospital.

In a video of the incident published by WBFF Fox 45an older white man is shown lying on the ground. The taller of two assailants who first appears on screen stomped on the man’s head and rifled through the man’s pants pockets. A second person punches the man in the back and moves his arm. A third person entered the frame, rifled through the man’s pockets and then all three exit the frame.

City officials expressed frustration and concern that the 15-year-old was released.
