A New Jersey mother said she was beaten into unconsciousness by a 13-year-old boy who had been bullying her son at school with ethnic slurs, including Go back to Mexico and Go behind the wall.

Beronica Ruiz, 35, said she was walking her 12-year-old son home from school with her 1-year-old daughter on June 19 when the assailant stalked them and attacked.

He said a lot of bad words. I said, Stop, dont do that. And the guy said, Shut up, Ruiz said, recounting the incident to NBC New York.

Ruiz said the boy, a seventh grader at Passaic Gifted and Talented Academy School No. 20, where her son attends, punched her and knocked her out. The teen also struck her son in the face, she said.
