    Generally you go to the police and report an assault. But before you do so, I suggest you explain to us the details. Since you posted this in the Teens forum, I suspect there is a lot more to this and that the police might be less willing to prosecute a juvenile dispute.

    Dining Room? Was this in school or what? Did you report it to the school authorities? Were there witnesses that this was an unprovoked attack?

    However, if you have a history with this girl, its even less likely the police will deal with this.

    I've merged your two threads, please don't start multiple threads for the same issue.

    Also, I've moved it to the law forum since its really a legal issue.

    From all your posts, I'm getting that you are in some sort of group home or social services situation. Also it doesn't appear that this was a total random action, since you have had issues with her before.

    But your first step here is to talk to the people that run the facility you are in. Its possible ne or the other of you can be transferred to another facility.

    Well since you are going home, I would tend to just drop it. But, I would choose a different facility if you need treatment again.

    The only other thing I can suggest is to talk to your parents or guardians. The facility should have not let this happen.

    First if the "residents" of this facility have mental and emotional issues, not always are they considered responsible for their actions, depending on what type of hospital this is.

    I get hit occasionally by residents of a specific hospital wing.

    Next what is the hospital rules on staff breaking up fights, do any staff stop, or do they call security first?

    Next how bad was the head hurt, did specific medical care have to be done.

    Assuming you are a minor ( first how old are you) did you notify your parents or guardians, who are the ones who will have to file a police report.

    That's good. The ER record is proof that something happened.

    I still don't think the police will be interested, but your parents may have a suit against the hospital. I would suggest they contact an attorney.
