Teenage boys riding bicycles robbed two female drivers of horse-drawn
carriages in St. Louis, Missouri, on Sunday night at two separate
locations.
Five or six boys surrounded a carriage and nearly knocked a female
driver off of it when they grabbed her purse from underneath her, says
Jerry Kirk, the owner of the Brookdale Farms carriage company.
Kirk says the ordeal is very unusual. “We’ve been there seven nights a week for 35 years and never had an issue with anything,” he said.
“This is the first time that we’ve ever had an incident this way, and I’m not aware that there’s ever been an incident like this ever before.” Police arrested one suspect on Sunday, and another was arrested on Monday allegedly trying to sell a carriage driver’s stolen cell phone at a kiosk.
