Don't watch this video if you are sensitive to gore. Its highly graphic, rage inducing video.A 16-year-old girl was burned alive in Guatemala as a vicious 25-strong mob stood by and cheered.The shocking four-minute 38-second clip - too graphic to be published - has been shared widely in Guatemala and shows the teenager, blood streaming down her face, being punched and kicked before she is set on fire.
According to reports, the unnamed girl was surrounded in the village of Rio Bravo, 77 miles west of capital Guatemala City, after she was allegedly part of a gang that murdered a motorcycle taxi driver.
She and two other men allegedly shot Carlos Enrique González Noriega, 68, before robbing him and running away.
The two men with the teenager fled down a series of alleys, but the girl took a wrong turn and was surrounded by a vigilante mob.
As she lies on the ground, a man runs over with a can of petrol and pours it over her, sending her up in flames as she screams.
The camera continues to roll as the fire continues to ravage her body and the girl dies.
A police spokesman said that officers had tried to intervene but were blocked by the bystanders.
The video of the sickening incident was uploaded to YouTube and was viewed hundreds of thousands of times before it was removed.
The girl has not been identified, according to news website Tiempo. because the National Civil Police are worried it will spark further tensions in the area.
I don't think the usual comments that they are animals is going to do anything, but sharing the video across the social networks might help.
