Severn Teen Assaulted and Robbed Over Pair of Shoes

A Severn teenager was assaulted and robbed Saturday night after another teen struck him from behind and tried to steal a pair of shoes behind the 8200 block of Severn Orchard Circle, according to Anne Arundel County Police.

Police said a group of six walked past the 15-year-old before one of them hit the teenager from behind, knocking him to the ground. Officers specified that the same individual who struck the teen also stole an undisclosed amount of money before unsuccessfully trying to steal the shoes from the victim.

When officers arrived on scene around 6:30 p.m., all the suspects had fled the area, said police.

The victim identified several of the suspects by name, including one 15-year-old from Baltimore City who was  riven by a relative to the Western District Police Station on Sunday where he was charged on a juvenile citation with robbery, theft under $100 and second degree assault, said police.

Officers are still looking for the other five suspects involved in the robbery.
