In the video, the slain boy is seen taking off his shirt to get ready for a fight and immediately after that, 10 students start beating him up. He was thrown on the ground, his ankles were cut, and he was severely beaten.
On Tuesday, eight students were arrested by Las Vegas police and the FBI. Their identities were not immediately released because they were all under 18 years of age. After the fight, a man found the teenager lying unconscious, badly beaten, and brought him back to the campus. Where school staff called 911 and called the police.
Louis was hospitalized with severe head injuries and other injuries, where he died a week later. The beating was ruled a homicide by the coroner’s office in Las Vegas.
