Teens go on assault rampage downtown Charleston (SC)

CHARLESTON, SC - Police say between 11:30 p.m. Saturday night and 1 a.m. Sunday morning, a group of at least 15 teens assaulted several people. News 2's Travis Rice spoke exclusively to a woman that confronted the juveniles during the crime spree.

Kathleen Russell says "It was like swarms of bees I guess all where it just kind of comes in and they're all yelling and screaming and then I've never seen so many police men coming down the street and the kids would disperse real quickly." Kathleen lives downtown Charleston and has had to tell late nighters to quiet down before. She says "The college kids would say ooh I'm sorry miss and be quiet and in this case their was quite a different response"

Saturday was a different story, Russell says more than a dozen teenagers terrorized her street. She says "they we're angry and we're like this is what we're going to do."

One teenager tried to take Russell's cell phone, knocking it to the ground where another juvenile tried to grab it again.

Kathleen said "the girl in front of me took a belt off and said lady, you're gonna get it, you're gonna really get it."

The group eventually left Russell alone, but not others. Police say a group of kids snatched a purse from a woman near Rutledge and Cannon on Saturday night.

Later, Police responded to Vanderhorst and Coming where five men told Police that teens assaulted them.

Police say no one was seriously injured, but Russell wonders what's next for the young group. She said, "I saw this group and I envisioned them - what's gonna happen in 10 years."

Also from the Post and Courier:
“One teen was arrested Monday. Jordan Q. Hall, 17, of Chapel Street, a ninth-grader ....”

Seventeen, in 9th grade, and facing 25 years in prison.
That’s no way to go through life, son.

Civil society appears to be dieing (especially in cities and especially with ferals). Because they are such a small minority, they aren’t going to like the eventual outcome of their incivility to society.

I am sure, teens = negros.

Sure are feeling their oats with Obola/Jarret and Holder/Lynch watching their back.

I’m seriously thinking about coming to Charleston on memorial day weekend to avoid bike week.

The only reason I have to visit there any more is helicopter flight school assuming I can afford later this year.

Somebody get a hold of Lyndsay Graham and tell him some "teens" are causing trouble in Charleston. I'm sure he and Wacko-Bird McCain can solve the problem by throwing a few million dollars their way like every other Washingtonian solution to problems concerning "teens".

Or, leave it to the locals and we'll see if these rambunctious "teens" can manage the swim half-way back from Fort Sumter some midnight.

Perhaps they were searching the looted stores for belts to hold their trousers in place.

I love Charleston. Beautiful city but it doesn’t take a lot to make tourists go spend their money somewhere else.

Did SC just pass some more lenient carry laws?

If you don’t live in Charleston or if you aren’t on Free Republic, you probably wouldn’t know about this.

My son and his family live outside Charleston - he keeps us posted of things like this via facebook but hasn't managed to ferret this one out yet; or didn't get enough of it to make it interesting to him.

They need to arrange reciprocity with GA.

Yes, you can ask but I am certain that you know there is no need to, this is one case in which you can safely assume.
