Three women riding a Muni bus in the Mission yesterday initiated a confrontation with another passenger that led to an aggravated assault, police have reported.

The incident took place aboard a bus around 4:43pm near 23rd Street and Potrero Avenue, near San Francisco General Hospital. The suspects, described as teenaged females, started an argument with a 29-year-old woman.

When the victim deboarded, the suspects followed her before striking her and causing her to lose consciousness. The victim was taken to a hospital with non-life-threatening wounds, and the suspects fled the scene.
