Gang turn on youths
TWO teenagers needed hospital treatment when they were attacked by a gang in an Islington street on Saturday.
The victims, aged 17 and 19, both from Hackney, were confronted by a group of youths in Upper Street.
The 17-year-old was punched in the face, knocked to the ground and kicked.
Others from the group punched the second victim in the face. His mobile phone was stolen.
The gang fled in a car, leaving the teenagers to seek treatment at University College Hospital in Bloomsbury.
