Preteen girls arrested, accused of torturing girl at sleepover

LOGANSPORT, Ind. (WXIN) — Two 12-year-old girls were arrested and one was charged in connection to an alleged violent assault on another girl in Logansport, Indiana, over the weekend.

According to the Logansport Police Department, officers received a call from dispatch around 7:30 a.m. Saturday regarding a juvenile that had been “battered.”

“From the stuff that I’ve learned at this point during the investigation, it is very sensitive. It is what I would consider severe,” said Sgt. Dan Frye. “What the juveniles have been arrested for at this point are different charges related to battery, and anything that you could look at that goes along with that.”

Frye added, “It’s very significant, very severe. It’s a little bit heart wrenching to watch the videos and to hear what has been alleged at this point.”

Family members of the victim, also a 12-year-old girl, said she was invited to what she believed was a sleepover with friends Friday night.
