Muni driver … to the rescue?
From today’s Ingleside Station SFPD newsletter, though the incident likely happened sometime last week:
<blockquote>2:30 pm — Silver Ave. & Mission St. — Strong Arm Robbery
A 15 year old Portola District male was set upon and beaten by three robbers who broke his jaw and took his iPod. <strong>A Muni bus driver stopped the assault</strong> and the perpetrators fled. The robbers were described as: black males aged 16 to 18 years old, standing 5’9″ to 5’10” tall, weighing 150 to 160 pounds. All were wearing black sweatshirts over dark jeans. One was wearing a black beanie hat, one was carrying a black back pack.</blockquote>
