The vicious attack happened on Friday 6th January 2006 at 1845 as the two girls walking towards the underground station.

The victims, aged 15 and 14 years, were approached by a group of 7 people, 5 were male and 2 were female. The two females in the gang both had dogs in their control, believed to be Staffs or Pitbulls.
