Police say the boy, in his mid-teens, got off a bus at Selkirk and Andrews and began walking. A group of six to 10 teens later got off the bus and confronted him at Manitoba and Andrews.

The group pushed the boy and demanded his belongings while armed with weapons. Police say the group continued to assault him once he was on the ground.

Police say the group eventually left with some of the boy’s stuff and hopped onto another bus.
