A 19-year old will face sentencing in Australia next week, after dragging a 14-year old girl along a train platform and toward a moving train in the northern suburbs of Adelaide, Australia last October.
In the horrifying footage, the young girl, is seen losing grip of the chair and resisting, as Lucas Gary Narkle tries to drag her towards the edge of the platform.
After his failed attempt, he tries again, this time sitting next to her, pinning her down on another seat.
She is then seen clinging onto the handle of the bench with one arm.

As soon as another train approaches the platform, Narkle pulls her off the seat and again drags her quickly to the edge of the platform.
In one final attempt to push her in front of the nose of the train, the young girl continues to resist and they both fall to the ground.
The confronting footage shows that she was extremely close to being thrown in front of the train.
Narkle faced the District Court on Wednesday after earlier pleading guilty to endangering the girl’s life in October 2017.
The court heard the girl, could be seen “holding on for dear life” as she was dragged along the station platform by Narkle.
Judge Simon Stretton today agreed to a request to delay sentencing, and Narkle’s bail was continued until a hearing next week.
