A 17-year-old girl, honor roll student, cheerleader and lifeguard, with no prior record whatsoever, has been hospitalized after a run-in with Clairton, PA police.
The reason for the stop near an ice cream shop was that the 17-year-old was in violation of the town's government mandated bed time for everyone younger than 18, also known as a curfew.

This sinister young woman who dared risk the disintegration of societal order by being outside after 10 p.m. was approached by the heroic Clairton police destined to protect the town from this dangerous villain.
Upon their approach she fled the scene, and apparently for good reason. After her capture she was beaten so bad that she was hospitalized.
She had cuts and bruises all over her body and air pockets in her esophagus and lungs as a result of the blunt force trauma.
Police say the girl resisted with violence. She can be seen struggling with police in a nearby security video and then is quickly pummeled and brought to the ground by one of the officers.
"She's the type of child you can't even raise your voice to or she'll cry," said the 17-year-old's grandmother.
Police declined comment and only say that the incident is under investigation.
