Omg this is awful. Acid attacks are cowardly and appalling. When caught, they should have acid thrown in their face!
Hope the girl and others are ok, acid can't be removed. Oh that poor girl 😞

"The Metropolitan Police says it believes the two teens were approached on Alfred Road by a male "who threw a substance at them before fleeing down Harrow Road".
The force described the suspect as a tall and slim black male wearing dark clothing and riding an e-scooter.
It added the male's face was obscured "possibly by a mask or balaclava", and he rode the e-scooter to and from the scene."

This girl and her family must feel like they are living in a nightmare.
"Corey McFarlane, the girl’s father, said she was in a stable condition after suffering burns on the left side of her face, but that she could be scarred for life.
He said: “She’s very traumatised by the attack.
“She’s very scared about her injuries. She’s a young girl, and these scars could be for life. She’s very worried about that and has been asking about that.”
"Corey McFarlane, the girl’s father, said she was in a stable condition after suffering burns on the left side of her face, but that she could be scarred for life. Mr McFarlane said he had been staying at his daughter’s bedside in hospital, waking her every couple of hours to administer eye drops and apply paraffin to her face “to keep everything in place”.
He said: “I can’t explain what I’m going through. Words can’t explain it.”
