This incident happened in Winnipeg and the sad thing is that people passing by did not come to the aid of the grandma and let the girls continue their attack on her.
......Chartrand, her grandson, who was riding on the back of the wheelchair, and Happy were on their way to a convenience store when the incident occurred shortly after noon on Oct. 5. The grandmother said they were attacked on the north sidewalk of Ellice Avenue between Banning and Arlington streets in the West End.
Chartrand said the girls are 12 to 14 years old and likely attend schools in the area. She said the girls were in her path -- purposely, she thinks -- so she asked them to move.
They did, but they also hurled insults. "They called me all kinds of dirty names. I tried to ignore them because I was worried about my grandson and dog," she said.
Moments after the trio passed, the girls hurled rocks, Chartrand said.......

Too bad these girls couldn't have been shown a lesson from this, instead of escaping retribution. We should not be shy about helping the innocent and vulverable. It is incumbent upon us all to interactively maintain vigilance for our mutual public safety. If this entails kicking some adolescent butt, so be it.
