UPDATED 01/17/12 4:14 p.m.
CHICAGO (CBS) – Six people were being questioned by police Tuesday morning in a brutal attack on a 17-year-old boy in the Bridgeport neighborhood, which was videotaped and posted on YouTube.
As CBS 2’s Susanna Song reports, the assault happened shortly between 4 p.m. and 4:20 p.m. Sunday behind James Ward Elementary School in the 2800 block of South Princeton Avenue, just south of Chinatown.
Police Supt. Garry McCarthy told CBS 2 Chief Correspondent Jay Levine that detectives are still looking for two more suspects, and the six already being held will soon be charged.
“We’re pretty confident that we’ve got the makings of wrapping this thing up,” McCarthy said. “We’ve got six people in custody. We’ve got two more people identified, who we’re out looking for right now.”
McCarthy said the attack was not racially motivated, but was in retaliation for an earlier incident, in which 20 people attacked two teens.
“It appears to be retaliation for a previous assault. We’re confident that we’ve got the right people in custody. We think that we’ll be charging them very shortly.”
As CBS 2′s Derrick Blakley reports, the victim allegedly took part in an October attack in which 20 teens jumped on two others.
The 17-year-old victim was jumped by seven offenders and was robbed of his gym shoes, wallet and money, police said.
The video shows the young men chasing and surrounding the boy, who is clad in red sweatpants, and relentlessly attacking him. They drag him, only to punch and kick him some more. He was punched and kicked repeatedly in the face.
Some of the assailants hit the boy with chunks of ice and choked him. Finally, he laid there helpless and beaten.
This goes on for 3 minutes and 39 seconds, as an accomplice shot the video.
The victim eventually broke free and ran, only to have the suspects chase him down the alley.
The victim was treated and released for minor injuries at Mercy Hospital, ultimately suffering only a few cuts and bruises
According to police, the robbers took about $180 from the boy.
It is believed that the victim lives in Chinatown, not far from where he was attacked. Sources said he attends Marie Curie Metropolitan High School. The attackers are students at Thomas Kelly High School.
“It is awful. It’s awful that somebody around here got beaten up; young, very young,” said neighborhood resident Yan Li, who herself has an 8-year-old son and worries about him in the community.
“Pretty unnecessary, basically,” added parent Gervon Jean-Baptiste. “But what can you do? Just make sure the neighborhood watch is a little better or something; next time somebody sees something like that, they call the police or something. Instead of sitting back and letting it happen, maybe they should have called the police. They could have handled it.”
The video was posted on YouTube and removed twice. But a Reddit page on the attack drew more than 500 comments. Many even provided the names of those allegedly involved in the beating.
Community activist Andrew Holmes says social media is a useful tool in solving the crime.
“It was just disgusting, but I’m glad that the people are calling the Chicago Police Department, and posting information on video and on YouTube,” Holmes said.
In fact, police found out about the beating because so many people called them and showed them the YouTube video.
McCarthy said charges will come shortly against the six suspects now being held, and the other two wanted people are expected to surrender.

I feel sad for the beating but im not buying that the chinese dude is completely innocent as yet.
Not condoning the violence but we need to always watch both sides of the story.
