Mum with young kids punches and kicks woman on Tube platform
A mum was with her young children when she repeatedly kicked and punched another woman in the face. The attack took place during a violent robbery at East Acton Underground station.
A group which included a man and a woman with two prams and young children were causing a disturbance on a westbound Central Line Tube. As the train reached East Acton the man from the group grabbed the bag of another female passenger and when she tried to get her belongings back from him he pulled her off the train whilst shouting and hitting her in the face.
The victim was pushed to the platform floor where she was repeatedly punched and kicked in the face by the woman from the group. The man then took the victim’s phone from her pocket before the group left the station.
