The boy was struck around eight times

The 14-year-old victim was struck around eight times by the gang with bats and wooden sticks. After falling to the ground the thugs continued to hit the teen as he curled up into a ball and tried to protect his head, reports the Daily Record.

"It points towards a greater trend of violence that we must do everything in our power to stop. This must be taken seriously. More must be done to prevent these serious acts of violence.” Scottish Conservative Shadow Justice Secretary Jamie Greene MSP said: “This appalling attack will shock anyone who sees it. There must be a zero tolerance towards violence in our schools and it is concerning that we are seeing such incidents becoming all too common across Scotland.
