Downtown assaults by group of teens probed:
"Louisville police are investigating a series of assaults by a roving group of teens in the downtown that a spokesman said sent at least two people to University Hospital Saturday night.
Spokesman Dwight Mitchell said the incidents started about 9 p.m. and involved about 10 to 15 teens assaulting apparently random victims in seven or eight incidents.
The first incident occurred near the Big Four Bridge.
A woman was attacked in the restroom of a gas station at First and Jefferson streets and was taken to University Hospital with serious injuries, he said.
Another incident occurred near The Courier-Journal, 525 W. Broadway, where a man was attacked and taken to University with unknown injuries, Mitchell said.
Several cars in the vicinity of The Courier-Journal were vandalized, but it is unknown if those acts were linked to the roving assaults.
Mitchell said details were sketchy as of almost 11 p.m. and he hoped to release more information Sunday."
