SACRAMENTO (CBS13) – In the past few months, multiple teens claim they were jumped and stripped of their belongings. And today, while we were interviewing one of the victims, it happened again.
“I thought I was gonna die at first ’cause they were just, like, stomping on me and kicking me for like a minute,” said a Sheldon High student.
He was jumped by 12 teens as he walked home from school.
“It just happened all right here,” he said.
A freshman at Sheldon High who didn’t want to be identified said it happened last month as he left a school dance. He was walking on a trail used by many students.
“They started punching me,” he said.
He was blindsided and then robbed of his Jordans.
“They took my shoes, picked me up and threw me in the puddle and then took off,” he said.
The suspects tried but couldn’t get away with his cell phone or belt, but left him bruised and battered.
And this isn’t the first time it happened.
Last week, another teen was allegedly jumped by a large group and stripped of his shoes and pants in the same area.

Hmmmm, “teens”.
Sounds like some sort of biased age profiling.
This is par for the course in California. No arrests. The entire incident was probably recorded on a surveillance camera. I will lay you odds at 10 to 1 that it was a gang of a “dreamers”.
Anybody who buys their kid a $200 pair of sneakers and a $500+ cellphone is stupid................
The ‘teens’ were said to be members of the high school varsity football team and one of the victims is white and the other Hispanic.
"Dreamers" aren't typically the group that steals shoes off the feet of their victims.
On the upside though, there are some new freshly minted conservatives amongst the victims.
My kid likes those expensive sneakers. We gave him the amount of money we would spend on shoes and he had to come up with the rest if he wanted them. He always did. He also bought and sold these shoes. He is quite the entrepreneur.
When I read a story like this I like to play the “guess the ethnicity game.”
I am nearly always right.
Yup. “Teens” says all that need be said.
The MSM is so transparent (and stupid).
“He was walking on a trail used by many students.”
Everyone knows that California trails are lined with surveillance cameras.
Giving a defenseless kid an expensive item in this day and age is asking for trouble.............those days are over.......for now................
“We gave him the amount of money we would spend on shoes and he had to come up with the rest if he wanted them. “

Good for you. That’s what my daughter and her husband did when the kids wanted Macs when entering high school-— paid a reasonable portion and made them pay the rest,which they did.

Start the countdown for school walkout and march for shoe safety. /S
There is that word again: Teens
It depends on where you live. And how fast your kid can run.
Evil is everywhere.......................
You guessed white Amish, right?
Which led to my relatively short-term careers as a "lawn mowing contractor" (with business cards!) and later golf caddy. It was exciting; there was just no end to the possibilities.
