Among the several instances of children being attacked by bullies I've heard of lately, one in particular seems to be happening on a continual basis. A young girl has been attacked and beaten severely while walking home from her bus stop. This has happened three times and she has sustained some pretty bad injuries.

The boys who have done this have not been caught.

This has been happening near goggin road in Rancho Calaveras. If anyone has any information on this please contact us here at the site

 

Thanks

Hello, My name is Denise and I am a life long resident of Calaveras County, San Andreas to be more specific. I have a 12 year old son who is a student of Sheng Chi Kung Fu. It is so amazing to me to watch his personal growth and strength with every class. I would also like to tell anyone who is reading this about the change in a sweet young girl who rides with us to Sheng Chi. First let me say she would not be going to class at all if there were not business sponsors who donate $ to the Sheng Chi Foundation. The foundation is great.
