A Covington juvenile was attacked and robbed late Monday evening on his way home by a group of male teens, according to a Covington Police Department report. The 16-year-old victim said he was walking by the railroad tracks shortly before 11 p.m., returning from a friend's house, when eight to 10 black male teens, ranging in age from about 15 to 18, "jumped" him and began beating him, according to the report. He was punched in the face and fell to the ground, where the other group members started punching and kicking him.
