STATEN ISLAND, N.Y. -- Police are probing five separate assaults on teen girls in the Staten Island Mall over the past 10 days, which detectives believe were perpetrated by two different groups of female juveniles, according to a law enforcement source.

Two arrests have been made in one of the beatings.

On the night of Friday, June 21, four separate attacks were reported on teen girls in the New Springville shopping complex, the source said. The assailants in those incidents are described as a group of black and Hispanic females, ages 12 and 13.

In several of attacks that day, one of the perpetrators videotaped the beating, the source said.

There have been no arrests in those incidents, and detectives believe they were committed by the same group of teens.

“You can’t imaging the emotions I’ve been going through,” said the mother of a girl assaulted on June 21. “I’ve been crying at the drop of a hat, every time I had to explain it to someone.”

A few days later, at about 9 p.m. on Wednesday, June 26, two 14-year-old girls were walking outside the entrance of JCPenney near Applebee’s, when they were set upon by a larger group of female teens, described as black and around the ages of 13 and 14.

Members of the larger group told the victims they were “bored” and wanted to fight, then made a reference to SnapChat and attacked the girls, one of the 14-year-olds told the Advance.

“It was the wrong place at the wrong time,” she said. “I don’t know what they wanted...I just don’t want to see this happen again."

The beating left the 14-year-olds bloodied and bruised, and one suffered a concussion.

Two alleged attackers were arrested in that case, but the NYPD does not release the names of underage defendants.

At this time, detectives believe the June 26 attack was committed by different teens than those on June 21, the law enforcement source said.

In the past several days, word of the beatings has spread among concerned parents on social media, who have speculated on possible motives.

While the victims in all five incidents were white, authorities do not believe race played a role at this time.

“There’s nothing that elevates it to the status of a hate crime right now,” the source told the Advance. “There’s no slurs. There’s nothing to support that.”

On Saturday night, the NYPD was out in “full force” at the mall, with the 121st Precinct posting photos of a large number of Police Department vehicles outside the complex with their lights on.

“We will not tolerate any acts of violence or crime while you shop," the Twitter post read.

The source said there will be an “elevated presence” of cops there for a while.

The incidents have caught the attention of several public officials, most notably Borough President James Oddo and City Councilman Steven Matteo (R-Mid-Island).

Oddo -- who said he reached out to the mall for an overview of security in terms of technology and personnel -- will be meeting with Assistant Chief Kenneth Corey, the NYPD borough commander, and District Attorney Michael E. McMahon to discuss the matter further on Monday.

“We still have a long, hot summer ahead of us and we are all committed to do everything we can to make it a safe one," Oddo said Saturday. "To achieve that, we all have a role to play: Owners and operators of large retail establishments, law enforcement, elected officials, and yes, parents.”

Multiple parents who say their children were victimized expressed outrage at what they deemed a lack of security at the mall.

Said one parent: “They’ve made it so this would be a child-friendly environment, so (our children) can spend our money, but they’re not safe.”
