The young and the pointless

On May 6, authorities released video footage of three perpetrators wanted in conjunction with a March robbery.

As first reported in the March 31 South Philly Review as “Kids these days,” police officers headed to the 800 block of South Darien Street at 8:31 p.m. March 19, learning from the complainants a pair of unknown figures approached them and demanded their property, with the strangers threatening to stab them for noncompliance. Seeing no weapon yet being sensible, the victims parted with an iPhone 5c and $11. They noted the offenders fled on skateboards on Catharine Street.
