Description
Police said on Wednesday there have been over 14 instances of teens in north Seattle targeted in muggings in the last month.
Todd Kibbee, Seattle Police Department (SPD) assistant chief of operations, said the common trend in the recent spate of muggings is that kids are coming home from school between 2-5 p.m. Kibbee said suspects driving stolen vehicles will jump out of a car to mug the teens or surprise them from behind. The suspects have flashed a gun and been violent on some occasions, Kibbee said.
Most of the victims have been young boys.
