Three teenage boys on Thursday pleaded guilty to threatening a lesbian couple who refused their demands to kiss on a London bus earlier this year, a "homophobic incident" that left the two women with bloody facial injuries, authorities said. Two of the boys pleaded guilty to offenses of an aggravated hate crime. The teens had thrown coins and made lewd and homophobic gestures at the women, police said. Security footage from the bus showed the boys fighting Geymonat and Hannigan, punching the women several times. Speaking shortly after the attack, Geymonat said the teens had surrounded them and attacked her girlfriend after they refused to kiss.
