“The same group of kids has been bullying him since the 7th grade, and the school they don’t do anything about it,” Hannah Myers told News Center 7.

Logan spent over five hours in the hospital and received six stitches on the back of his head.

Myers told News Center 7 that she feels ignored by the school.
