Two teenagers in the American state of Maryland are in trouble with the law after they assaulted a mentally challenged boy.

Lauren Bush, 17, and her 15-year-old accomplice are said to have tortured an autistic 16-year-old boy with a knife.

The duo watched as the boy fell into a frozen pond and did nothing to help him and they also forced him to masturbate and engage in a sex act with a family pet.

Bush and her accomplice, who can’t be named because she is being tried as a juvenile, also filmed the heinous act for yet unknown reasons.

The pair were caught when one of their mothers found the video on her daughter’s phone and informed the police.
