A horrific video has emerged of two teenage girls viciously attacking a disabled woman at a busy train station.
Footage posted on social media shows the teens punching and kicking the woman with Down syndrome at Melbourne’s Southern Cross Station.
The video shows a teenage girl delivering a brutal punch to the woman’s face.
The same teen delivers a series of punches before another girl comes forward and punches the woman from behind, causing her to fall heavily to the ground.

The woman lies helpless on the ground and receives a merciless kick in the head.
“That was (the) goal, you got what you deserve, b****,” one of the woman’s attackers is heard saying.
The attack was stopped after an elderly man bravely intervened by standing between the woman and her attackers.
Daily Mail Australia has contacted Victoria Police for comment.
Youth crime experts say incidents are often staged with the intention of posting the videos on social media to gain likes and attention.
On Friday, a video emerged of a teenage boy being brutally beaten by a gang of eshays.
The sickening incident appeared to be part of a feud between warring ‘postcode gangs’ in Brisbane’s suburbs.
The victim, who is covered in blood, is told by his attackers that he is ‘f***ing guilty’.
“I don’t know who you are,” the boy replied.

“Damn you,” his ruthless attackers reply.
The video shows the boy being grabbed by his hair and beaten with what appears to be an electrical cord.
Accompanying comments indicate that the violence was fueled by a rivalry between two gangs identified as ‘Cabra’ and ’27’.
Last year, NSW Police were forced to issue a warning about so-called ‘fight club’ videos in a small rural town after teenagers began performing punch-ups to be filmed and posted on social media.
Primary school-age children and even parents were caught taking part in the bizarre phenomenon at Casino, in NSW’s Northern Rivers region.

NSW Police Assistant Commissioner Gavin Wood slammed the disgusting behavior and called out parents caught watching the fights.
“When it comes to the use of social media platforms, these trends go beyond stupidity and recklessness; these acts are crimes,” he told The Daily Telegraph.
“Filming yourself committing a crime and posting the video online is a good way to get arrested.”
Deputy Commissioner Gavin Wood explained that the fighting appeared to be not just a police problem, but also a community problem.
“Everyone needs to take responsibility and adhere to the old saying, ‘It takes a village to raise a child’… that’s what I’m talking about,” he said.
