Two teen girls have been arrested and police are looking for a third after they say a father and his adult daughter were robbed and assaulted at The Forks Monday night.
Police say the father and daughter were in a parking lot at The Forks when a group of girls approached and demanded money around 8 p.m.
They say the man was punched and kicked in the head after refusing to hand over cash. Police say the man’s daughter was also assaulted as she called 9-1-1.
Investigators say the suspects smashed the woman’s phone before running away.
