Boy, 13, Attacked Outside Wrocław School as Companion Acts as Lookout, Mother Says
A 13-year-old boy was knocked to the ground and kicked on his way to school in Wrocław by two classmates, according to his mother. She says she was then asked whether her son had provoked the attack.
The attack on the way to school
According to the Onet portal, 13-year-old Kuba was walking to school on the morning of October 1, 2026, when two pupils confronted him. One knocked him to the ground and kicked him, while the other stood nearby and kept watch, the report says (Jeden kopał, drugi robił za obstawę. Pobicie 13-latka przed szkołą we Wrocławiu – Onet).
The mother's account
The boy's mother, Aleksandra, told Onet that she received a call at around 8 a.m. from her son, who sounded frightened, and from an unknown man who said the boy had been beaten. She asked him to walk the child to school and wait for her, and went there immediately.
Response from authorities
Aleksandra said that instead of clear support from the school, she and her son met with questions about whether the boy had provoked the assault, and that police officers also did not show her full understanding, the report states. The article does not say whether the school or police have issued a formal response to these claims.
Why it matters
The case raises questions about how schools and law enforcement respond to reports of bullying involving minors, and whether victims' families receive timely and unambiguous support. Onet's reporting relies on the mother's account; the outcome of any inquiry was not described in the material available.
