"Next thing I know she grabbed my arm as you can see, pulled my hair and shoved me onto the ground and yeah she was just repeatedly kicking my head for a solid 10 minutes," Coats told 9News.

Pinned down on the ground, with her arms held behind her back, she shut her eyes and screamed, she said.

"I was thinking 'Oh my god are they going to leave me unconscious here'?"

Two women pulled over to help her, causing the young attackers to run away.
