Lennox and Addington OPP have charged a 13-year-old girl following a “violent incident” in Napanee, Ont., earlier this week.
At about 4 p.m. on Tuesday, OPP received a call that a group of youths were attempting to steal a bike from another child.
According to police, while they were on their way to the scene, they were notified that one of the girls in the group had thrown the bicycle at the victim from the top of the hill near the Water Street and Centre Street intersection.
Police say the girl then started to throw boulders off the top of the hill, striking the victim multiple times.
“Witnesses from a local nearby restaurant rushed to assist the victim and scared away the group of youths,” says Lennox and Addington OPP in a press release.
“Police and ambulance were on scene quickly to assist the victim who required medical attention.”

The teen was released and is scheduled to appear in court at a later date.
