Welcome to the Obamaland Legacy and the Media's general refusal to report who the swarming gang was and what they looked like. Race coverup with the usual euphemisms has become so commonplace, that we fill in the blanks as to the race of the criminals without much error. m/r
BART takeover robbery: 50 to 60 teens swarm train, rob weekend riders

A recent string of robberies on BART trains took a frightening turn when
dozens of juveniles swarmed an Oakland station over the weekend and
commandeered a train car, forcing passengers to hand over bags and cell
phones and leaving at least two with head injuries, witnesses told the
transit agency. The incident — the first of its kind in recent memory —
occurred around 9:30 p.m. Saturday at Coliseum Station.
According to a
police summary, witnesses said 50 to 60 juveniles flooded the station,
jumped the fare gates and rushed to the second-story train platform.
Some of the robbers apparently held open the doors of a Dublin-bound
train car while others streamed inside, confronting and robbing and in
some cases beating riders.
The juveniles “committed multiple strong-arm
robberies of bags and cell phones,” said the summary. “At least two
victims suffered head/facial injuries requiring medical attention.”
Police did not say if any of the suspects were armed, or describe
exactly how the passengers were wounded. The attack was quick, police
reported, and the teenagers were able to retreat from the station and
vanish into the surrounding East Oakland neighborhood before BART
officers could respond. The train that was hit was held for about 15
minutes as authorities investigated the crime and tended to the injured.
BART spokeswoman
Alicia Trost said Monday morning she wanted to get
more information from police before commenting in detail. But she said
BART was “working with Oakland police, Oakland public schools, and the
Oakland Housing Authority to identify the suspects based on surveillance
images.”
