An Oakland woman said she was mugged in broad daylight by two people she thought were teenagers. She said she later found out they may be tweens.
The woman, identified as Iona, said she was attacked Monday afternoon near Jack London Square in Oakland. It was an attack that lasted seconds, but in her mind it felt like hours.
"They punched me. I fought back with them," Iona said.
