An 8-year-old boy took his own life two days after receiving a beating from his classmates at a public school in Cincinnati, OH, according to the images recorded on video.

As the Cincinnati Enquire newspaper revealed on Wednesday, images obtained from the school's security cameras show how several students beat little Gabe Tye at the entrance to one of the restrooms at Carson Elementary School on January 24.

"The behavior I have seen seems to me to be bullying and could even go as far as a criminal assault," said an unidentified detective in the case documents obtained by the newspaper.

Two days after being assaulted by schoolmates, which knocked him unconscious, Taye hung himself on the bunk in his room.

The day he was beaten, no one told his parents - always according to the newspaper - that his son had been the victim of an assault, but had passed out. His mother picked him up from the school nurse's office and he stayed home the next day because he complained of pain in his stomach, something his parents attributed to a virus.

The next day the boy returned to school without incident. When he returned home, he locked himself in his room and at around 5:30 pm local time, he hanged himself with his uniform tie.

"I feel like not enough was done, and I think things have been hidden under the rug," the boy's mother, Cornelia Reynolds, told local WLTV.

According to the police report, the video shows a boy attacking others when Gabe arrives, who tries to shake hands with the aggressor, but he grabs him and throws him violently against the wall. The blow is unconscious for seven and a half minutes. During this time, other students who pass by the site mock, kick or pass over the little boy lying on the ground.

"If the school had told him what happened in the bathroom, that he was unconscious for so long, he would have taken him to the hospital, he would have told the doctors, he would have reported it to the police," the lawyer for the police told the Enquire. Jennifer Branch family. "That is what is so frustrating about this case."
