The family of Kaylee Gain, a Missouri girl who was critically injured during a fight 10 days ago near a St. Louis high school, said Monday she has suffered a fractured skull and hasn’t regained consciousness.


“The full scope and extent of Kaylee’s injuries and prognosis for recovery cannot be determined until, with God’s grace, she regains consciousness,” attorney Bryan Kaemmerer, a spokesperson for Gain’s family, said in a statement.


Video shows the 16-year-old was punched during an altercation near Hazelwood East High School on March 8.


Gain can be seen in the video getting thrown to the ground and punched in the head by another teen girl. The video also shows her getting her head slammed onto a concrete sidewalk multiple times.


It’s not clear what led to the fight, and police have not publicly identified those involved. But the viral video is connected to the investigation, police spokesperson Vera Clay wrote in an email last week.


Last week, the St. Louis County Police Department wrote in a Facebook post that a 15-year-old girl suspect was arrested March 9 and was being held by St. Louis County Family Court on assault charges.


Gain’s family has asked that no retaliation occur towards anyone who may or may not be involved in the incident, Kaemmerer said.


“Although the family would like justice to eventually be served through the legal system, their focus at this time is dedicated exclusively to Kaylee’s recovery,” Kaemmerer said.


Gain is a student at Hazelwood East High School, he said. The day after the altercation, the Hazelwood School District said it is “a tragedy anytime children are hurt.”


“Bullying and fighting in the community is an issue for which we all need to take ownership and work towards a resolution for the sake of our children,” the district said in a Facebook post March 9.


A GoFundMe page has been set up on behalf of Gain and her family.
