They thought they had hit the sweet spot. Two young teenagers were arrested in Marseille this week on suspicion of racketeering and assaulting medical students, reports France Blue.
The scene was repeated in recent weeks, always with the same modus operandi. Tumbling down on scooters, the attackers approach medical students in the early evening who are preparing for their competition until late at night, extracting computers and mobile phones from them.
Alerted by the dean of the faculty, the police set up a surveillance device, resulting in the arrest of two very young teenagers.
