A deaf schoolboy was left scrambling to pick up his cochlear implant after being attacked at a school bus stop. Reece Bradbury, 11, who communicates with sign language, is "jumpy" since the incident and has suffered panic attacks.
CCTV captured the assault at John Rice’s petrol station in Blythe Bridge, Staffordshire, where the youngster sought refuge. The upsetting footage, recorded at around 8.25am on September 28, can be viewed below.
Reece attends Painsley Catholic College in Cheadle but the two boys who appoached the youngster were reportedly from Blythe Bridge High School. Describing the incident as "malicious and unprovoked", his dad Daniel said: "You can't attack a disabled child and get away with it."
