Two incidents Saturday left two women with minor injuries after assaults and robberies by large groups of teenagers.
Around 6:30 p.m., Saskatoon police responded to a report of a large group of teens causing a disturbance inside a restaurant on the 400 block of 22nd Street East.
When police arrived, they found three women aged 17 and 18 who said they were assaulted and robbed by the group. Two suffered minor injuries in the incident.
As police investigated, another report came in for assault and robbery on the 300 block of Third Avenue involving a large group of youths.
A 22-year-old man said he was approached while walking, with the group demanding money before “punching him repeatedly” and stealing his cellphone.
Several members of the group were located by officers.
Two girls, aged 14 and 12, were charged with assault and robbery in the first incident. An additional 14-year-old boy also was charged for breach of court conditions.
