A woman was hospitalized yesterday afternoon after she was beaten and robbed by two teenagers while riding the M-Ocean View Muni line.
The incident occurred at 1:35pm near 19th Avenue and Winston Drive when the victim got into a verbal confrontation with a male suspect between 15 and 18 years old.
As they argued, a second suspect, also in his late teens, approached and punched the victim. Both suspects then robbed the woman of currency, tablets, phones and a backpack before fleeing westbound on Winston Drive. The victim was taken to a hospital with non-life-threatening injuries.
