The girl's mom saw she was hurt and took her to the police.
The police are checking cameras to see what happened.

People in the neighborhood are upset and want the boys to be punished.
The mom wants the boys to be punished strictly.
The boys are being handled by a special board for young people who do bad things.
Some people think the boys should be punished more because what they did was very bad, but others think they should be handled carefully because they are still young.
