A 16-year-old Augusta boy was violently attacked Monday for no reason, and two teenage gang members were amused when confronted by sheriff's investigators, authorities said.
Two juveniles have been charged in the vicious assault on Circular Drive in Augusta. Berten Blockett, 16, (bottom) of Pineview Drive in Augusta, and Mark Daniel Richard Musick, 14, (top) of Fleming Drive in Augusta, have been charged with one count each of aggravated battery and unlawful criminal street gang activity.
According to Lt. Scott Peebles, the victim was walking his girlfriend home from school Monday afternoon when he was approached by a group of about five young males on Circular Drive. Upon seeing the subjects, the juvenile phoned his mother and told her that he was afraid that he was about to get “jumped”.
While on the phone with his mother, the boy was attacked by the group without any provocation. After the attack, the juvenile was taken by ambulance to University Hospital for treatment, but had to be transferred to the Medical College of Georgie to consult with surgeons to repair multiple facial fractures.
This morning, investigators arrested the two juvenile suspects at Butler High School, where they are students. The victim is also a student of Butler High School.
The juveniles claim to be members of the “Apple Valley Posse,” and the assault was gang-related, though the victim is not a gang member or affiliate, Lt. Peebles said. The group was walking through the Circular Drive area looking for a lone victim to attack, or in their words "locking down the block," according to Lt. Peebles.
"Blockett and Musick were completely unrepentant, and expressed their amusement with the incident," Lt. Peebles said.
Both teens were committed to RYDC. The investigation is ongoing and more arrests are imminent.
Anyone with information concerning the remaining attackers is asked to contact the Richmond County Sheriff’s Office at 706-821-1080.
Daniel, your parents must be devastated at what a loser you've turned into.
ReplyDeleteNO COMMENTS: THEY WANT PEOPLE TO COMMENT AND WANT THE ATTENTION THERE ACTIONS BRING: SO PLEASE, DON'T GIVE THEM A REWARD, PLEASE
ReplyDeleteNothing a baseball bat to the head won't cure.
ReplyDeletewow. I live in the Circular Drive area. Some of the homes are turning into rentals, but for the most part, there are alot of elderly who have paid off their homes in that area. While it's never been the greatest neighborhood, it's certainly never been the worst. We all tend to get a long with the occassional argument every now and again. Now that this has happened, I am definately carrying my weapon from now on. I will not be a victim or let this happen to my sons in my own neighborhood.
ReplyDeleteNo wonder they had to double team the poor victim, these 2 look look like rejects from the Little Rascals. I doubt they can either do much damage one on one.
ReplyDeleteNo shock here that these guys had to double team their victim. They look like rejects from the Little Rascals. WEAK!
ReplyDeleteTwo words would solve this: MILITARY SCHOOL
ReplyDeleteMilitary school? Are you kidding? How about ADULT prison where they belong. They laughed about what the have done. I hope they get the crap beat out of them everyday of their life while in jail.
ReplyDeleteTo the parents of the white boy.....thug wannabe. There is NO WAY you did not know he was hanging with the bros !! Say bye bye to junior. Rest well good parents knowing that BIG DUKE is eyeballing your little thugs rear end day after day.....!! One day....he'll get just what he deserves.
ReplyDeleteBoth of these guys look like wussies.
ReplyDeleteThis scares me. It really does. How much they must've hurt their parents and the people that love them. Why do that to an innocent person... and LAUGH!? Sick, just sick. They need to be locked away and the key thrown away. They're have no sympathy NOW wait until they are older. Sad, sad, sad. Thanks little punks for destroying this world.
ReplyDeletethats just stupid burton daniel went to my school and so did terrence(the victim)that dude didn't fuck with nobody man but its ok now cuz they surely in for a rude awakening when there sentence
ReplyDeleteIf you knew how Daniel grew up, you would say oh okay, I know why he is the way he is. No, there is NO excuse but people that grow up without parents, how else do you expect them to turn out? They deserve to spend the next couple of years in prison where they belong because they had no reason to just pick a fight with someone walking down the street! They could have killed that poor boy.
