Three teenagers — all younger than 16 — are facing charges in connection to a pair of separate assaults that took place in Winnipeg on Friday, police say. Police believe the woman was walking in the area when she was approached by the two teenagers and asked for money. When she said no, the girls allegedly pushed her to the ground and tried to steal her purse. Police belive a 13-year-old boy they arrested at a home nearby had gone into the store without a face mask. The Winnipeg boy was charged with assault with a weapon and aggravated assault and taken into custody.
