A 16-year-old Washington High School student was assasulted while walking to school Tuesday morning.
The victim told city police she was walking on Allison Avenue in the area of East Wylie Avenue at 11:15 a.m. when she passed a man she did not recognize who said, “Yeah, that girl that runs her mouth, now tell your boyfriend I did this.”
She told police the man then punched her twice in the jaw and ran toward Tyler Avenue. The girl walked to school and reported the incident to administrators.
She was then picked up by a family member and taken to Canonsburg Hospital. She had bruises but no broken bones.
The report will be forwarded to the detectives unit for further investigation.
