Teenagers Plead Guilty To Beating Elderly Man

Video will be available shortly

A hearing was held Friday for three teenagers accused of attacking an elderly man in Lexington.

James Reynolds, Johnny Georgetown and Ronnell Suter plead guilty to beating an elderly hotel worker. Police say the three teenagers attacked 77-year old Junior Barnes in December of 2005.

Police say the elderly man told the teenagers to stop tearing down Christmas decorations at the Holiday Inn on Newtown Pike, that's when they attacked him.

All three boys plead guilty to beating the man, who was a janitor at the Holiday Inn. Today, all three teenagers were expected to be sentenced for assault, but they were not.
