Young girls tied to series of unprovoked attacks in San Francisco
Five unprovoked attacks in July
What we know
Officers are investigating at least five unprovoked assaults since July that allegedly involved the same group of girls.
The most recent incident occurred around 2:54 p.m. Saturday in the 100 block of Fourth Street, where officers met with two injured victims who were attacked by a group of girls, police said.
The victims were treated for injuries that were not life-threatening.
Police said bystanders intervened to stop the assault, and the group fled on foot.
Investigators, who were already aware of similar prior incidents, obtained surveillance footage and images of the alleged attackers and shared them with patrol officers.
Plainclothes officers later spotted several of the alleged perpetrators at Stonestown Galleria.

A 13-year-old girl and a 14-year-old girl were detained and later arrested on suspicion of assault after officers developed probable cause during their investigation. Both were cited and released to their parents.
An 11-year-old girl was detained and admonished in accordance with state law, police said.
"Violent attacks like these will never be tolerated, and the SFPD will use all resources available to ensure our city is safe," Interim Police Chief Paul Yep said. "I am extremely disappointed in the actions of these individuals, and they will be held accountable."
Authorities told KTVU they are still searching for more suspects.

Trump's Immigrant Crackdown in New York: More Arrests, Longer Detention
When President Trump returned to power, Democratic officials and immigrant communities braced for the prospect of mass raids in New York City, with predictions of roundups at migrant shelters, restaurant kitchens and street corners, and federal agents flooding schools, hospitals and even churches. But a starkly different reality has emerged in America's largest city during the first six months of Mr. Trump's second term. Unlike in Los Angeles and other parts of the country, immigration agents in New York have, for the most part, employed a much simpler strategy. They have had immigrants come to them. New federal data shows that half the migrants arrested in the New York City area since Jan. 20 have been detained after being summoned to the federal immigration offices in Manhattan or to the immigration courts there. They come for routine and mandated appearances, with judges typically determining whether someone who is in the country unlawfully can be deported or is eligible for asylum. Instead, in recent months, hundreds of people have been handcuffed without notice, largely out of public view. As the use of that tactic has accelerated, so have detentions. Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents arrested at least 2,365 immigrants in the region between late January and the end of June, a nearly 200 percent increase from the five months before Mr. Trump took office, according to the data. The new figures offer the clearest picture yet of the president's crackdown in the city with the country's largest immigrant population. Despite that distinction, New York has not topped the list of cities with the most immigrant arrests, even if apprehensions are above Biden-era levels. Immigration arrests in the New York City area have climbed under Trump Weekly ICE arrests 383 Detained for: shorter than 12 hours longer than 12 hours Detentions spike, driven by check-in and courthouse arrests, after Stephen Miller's meeting with ICE. 200 arrests Trump's inauguration 100 April '24 July Oct.
