USA New Video Footage Chilling School Attack Foiled by Teens Amid Alleged Honor Killing Attempt

[Social Media]

 

It was an ordinary afternoon at Timberline High School in Lacey, Washington, on October 18, 2023, when students spilled out of the building after the final bell. Clad in hoodies and backpacks, they waited for the bus, eager for the weekend. But within minutes, the quiet routine shattered into chaos, captured in harrowing footage never before seen by the public.

 

At precisely 2:13 p.m., as a school bus pulled up, three figures burst into frame, struggling violently. But this wasn’t a scuffle between students—it was a grown man allegedly trying to kill his own daughter.

 

The new footage, obtained by the Daily Mail, shows 44-year-old Ihsan Ali attacking his 17-year-old daughter in what prosecutors say was an attempted "honor killing" after she rejected an arranged marriage to an older man in another county. Her mother, Zahraa Subhi Mohsin Ali, 40, later joined the attack and also allegedly tried to strangle the girl. The couple have pleaded not guilty to second-degree attempted murder and attempted kidnapping, and their trial begins imminently.

 

The girl had run away days earlier after her parents tried to send her to Iraq and allegedly threatened to kill her. A local women’s shelter took her in, but without transportation, she and her 16-year-old boyfriend were forced to walk and wait at the school bus stop—where her father spotted them.

Ihsan confronted her, saying in Arabic, "Heron"—“It’s not right, you’re not supposed to be doing this”—before flying into a rage.

 

He slammed her to the ground, punched her boyfriend in the face, and choked her while ignoring a flurry of punches and kicks from other students trying to intervene.

 

Even as the teen boys battered him in a desperate attempt to free the girl, Ihsan refused to let go until he was knocked unconscious by repeated blows. The girl’s boyfriend, despite suffering a "boxer's fracture" and other injuries, helped pull her to safety.

 

Bystander Josh Wagner stopped his truck and pinned Ihsan to the ground after he regained consciousness, holding him there until police arrived. But the violence didn’t end with Ihsan’s arrest.

 

 

Moments later, the girl’s mother Zahraa allegedly took her turn, choking her daughter as they struggled on the ground behind a tree. “Once [the girl] and her mom were on the ground, her mom put her arm around her neck and started choking her,” police later wrote in their report. Only after another fight inside the school were the girl and her boyfriend able to hide until police arrived.

 

The boyfriend later told police it took him several days to speak about the attack without breaking down in tears. The girl, interviewed on October 24, said she feared being married off, abused, and forced to have children in Iraq. She recounted how her father threatened her life repeatedly: “If I could kill you, I would kill you... I can't do that because there’s cops and CPS involved right now because of you,” she claimed he told her.

 

Police bodycam footage captured Ihsan’s arrest. He demanded to speak to his daughter: “Just let me tell her to come home—not like that. If I tell her to go home, she will go home,” he pleaded, but officers denied the request.

 

Zahraa was not immediately arrested, only being taken into custody four days later when new evidence came to light. In the interim, she attempted to flee to Canada after dropping off her younger children with family across the border.

 

The girl was treated in hospital for four days. Her injuries included bruising, abrasions, broken blood vessels in her eyes, and signs of repeated strangulation. “[The girl] stated that she thought she was going to die,” court documents said.

 

Now in hiding, she continues to recover from the physical and emotional trauma of an attack that could have ended her life—if not for the bravery of her boyfriend, classmates, and a few strangers.

Garbage people I hope they spend decades in prison and the girl can find a good decent loving foster home just ugly!

It seems this type of cultural enrichment is not unique to the UK.

I have nothing but loathing for these creatures. Honour is the last thing that comes to mind when I think of them.

Worldwide infiltration, domination, subjugation  

 

Documented by history since its inception, probably now in its most successful guise

[black tabby12345]

Pity those beasts were taken alive.

Huge amount of time, energy and tax payers' money will be  wasted on  thugs.

Wish they all lay dead riddled with vigilante bullets before any squad car arrives...

Normally, mother is the diehard protector of own child.

But acting Vice-Versa versa.

Dogmatic obsession, just the same as Nazi demonstrated  at Holocaust.

Salute to the brave swift action by the instant high school  vigilantes.

Beating up the lunatic parent just in name.

One young life saved by the courage of other youth.

Bravo.

With strong sense of justice and guts, these boys look suitably qualified to work for police force in their future.

[Magictoad]

Unfortunately these people are our future as they gradually take over country after country as we are seeing now in New York, USA.

The UK has only a few decades, less than 5 perhaps before it becomes a Muslim nation.

The liberals, leftist, and Democrats in the USA  are welcoming them in the name Multiculturalism.

Naturally in the USA they are well armed and well trained and prepared to die.

This type of thing, marrying children off to old man in foreign country, then trying to kill them when they refuse, along with the rest of Sharia Law, is a good reason not to support Islam, why can't sane people see that.

Diversity in my nation of immigrants is indeed strength. No where in my nation of immigrants do we propose to tolerate such behavior from those wishing to join us.

I certainly agree as an American … while I admit we have Christian cults in the Uzs that practice those same marriage arrangements. Sad all around …

Why do you refer to them as “vigilantes”? They were, if fact enforcing US law not breaking the law. Vigilantes are construed as taking the law into their own hands not enforcing the law but using illegal force … the lynchings are a good example as opposed to protecting life, and liberty …

The so called prophet married Aisha when she was 6 and he was 50, he raped her three years later. His nasty book condones marriage to re pubescent girls and the rape of captives. This is the man they think was perfect.

Getting back to the subject attempted honor killing.

 

Can you please share your oft paraded knowledge of Islam and explain to us what the Qu’ran, the Hadith and Islamic law has to say about ‘honor killings’?

I said "instant"; they were not organized in advance.

They happened do rush to the scene at the same time.

But still did what they thought they  should do at that time.

That is why I called these people Instant Vigilante.

That is all.

The parents need harsh sentences. I saw many examples of "honor" offences in India. It was disgusting and mostly unprosecuted. Beatings, killings, rapes of wives and daughters. A horrifying environment.

Vigilante was wrongly chosen word, volunteer police would have been better.

Sure they do, the answer is more guns, especially in kindergartens.
