"I just got jumped," 16-year-old Victoria Lindsay told the 911 dispatcher.

"Do you know who did it?" the dispatcher asked.

"Yes, I do," she said.

Victoria Lindsay called from a friend's house in Lakeland after the beating March 30. The friend's mother got on the phone and told the operator: "She's got blood in her mouth a big old knot on her left eye, and we think she's got a tooth broke."

The six teenage girls and two teen boys are accused of orchestrating the beating of last month. The teens have all bonded out of jail, but they are not allowed to return to Mulberry High School or use Internet sites like MySpace or YouYube.

All of the teens will be tried as adults on battery and kidnapping charges.
