Police say it's called “finessing.” Packs of teens begin their late-night hunts in downtown Minneapolis, looking for lone drunks, people distracted by cell phones, prey that won't fight back.
One person will strike up a conversation with a target. A moment later, the victim will be jumped, punched, and kicked into the pavement by the others.
It is the ultimate moron crime. In exchange for the risk of felony assault and robbery charges, all they're usually walking away with is a cellphone and a wallet already emptied at a bar. The phones are later sold at automated kiosks like ECO ATM, the cops believe. Once the money is divvied, a major score might come to $50 each.

Well, all we know is that they’re “teens”, so...
I trust the liberal media. Always so factual and thorough.
Would be great is someone would bait them and then counterattack beat-down with a larger force!
They were invited in...
Wouldn't work. The media narrative would be that they're a group of rappers, about to make their lives better by going to college, who just happened to be going out to buy some Skittles.
Immensely like. Have often thought of that.
And they're taking us all down the same socialist/communist/fascist rabbit hole that has buried numerous civilizations and peoples before us.
I have to think of that stupid white couple who went to Iran to signal their virtue under the pretense of showing how nice the Iranians are. Now they're languishing in an Iranian prison and nobody's heard from them since.
Who is the mayor and governing body in Minnesota? Why does Minnesota sound so screwed up?
Feral humans
The main reason I don’t live in a city and try my best never to visit.
The majority elected those who permit this atrocity. May they receive that which they desire... good and hard.
Lots of native born “teens” in Minneapolis taking part.
Not just the Somali invaders.
Just need two. Decoy and sniper.
They have no reason to be afraid of w system.
Ha - Yes! Use Sgt York method...start at back of back and work way forward....
