Three teens charged with assaulting street violin player at Erie bus stop
The Erie Bureau of Police has charged three teenagers with assault for punching and kicking a 23-year-old man at a bus stop at the corner of Peach and West Ninth streets. Deputy Chief Rick Lorah said the incident, which occurred May 20 at around 3 p.m., began as an argument between the parties aboard an EMTA bus and then turned physical at the bus stop. Lorah said he couldn't confirm what triggered the argument. '(The victim) was on the ground and sustained injuries consistent with getting punched and kicked while down, consistent with being assaulted by multiple actors,' Lorah said. The victim, who Lorah said frequently played the violin in the area as a busker, sustained non-life-threatening injuries and was treated at a local hospital. Lorah said five teenagers were at the scene but two didn't participate in the assault.
