An argument between two teenage girls escalated into a violent assault last Thursday in downtown San Luis Obispo. The five alleged assailants are all residents of San Luis Obispo County.

On Thursday evening, teens from four different SLO County public schools were in the Columbia Bank parking lot on Morro Street in San Luis Obispo when a 14-year-old girl and a 15-year-old girl began arguing.

The younger girl then threw the 15-year-old on the ground.

Five teens – two 14-year-old girls, a 16-year-old girl, a 16-year-old boy and a 17-year-old boy – then repeatedly punched and kicked the 15-year-old girl in the head and body, causing her to lose consciousness and sustain multiple injuries.

Before fleeing in several vehicles, the assailants allegedly stole their victim’s phone and purse.

At 8:28 p.m., a 9-1-1 caller reported a possible assault victim in the bank parking lot, according to the police log.

Officers arrived to find the injured teen. First responders then transported the victim to a local hospital.

After a five day investigation, officers identified and arrested five suspects on charges of assault with a deadly weapon with great bodily injury, robbery and conspiracy. In addition, two of the suspects were charged with being a minor in possession of marijuana and one was charged with being a minor in possession of pepper spray.

Officers booked the five suspects into SLO County Juvenile Hall on Tuesday. None of the suspects have previous criminal records, a source said. 

Depending on the injuries they inflicted on the victim, the 17-year-old and the two 16-year-old suspects could be charged as adults.

My heart goes out to this young victim. I hope her parents and the DA pursue justice for her. No kid should have to go through this. But, since none of them has a criminal record, they will probably get off with probation, just like the senior meth dealer. How sad.

SLO is not sending their best.

There are 3 articles in CCN the last few days about teens with guns in SM. Weekly articles every week like this for years. Lompoc too.

ICE has been in this area a lot recently rounding up farm workers.

Ask yourself. If you lived in SM or Lompoc, would you rather have them round up farm workers wearing gloves or punks like these teens?

The failed ICE operation in Minn. cost us $280 million. $120,000 per person detained.

Only 13 of them were gang members. Factoring this-$21 million per gangster

Truth in numbers hurts to read. You must be embarrassed.

Be part of the solution-not part of the problem.

Wow, I didn’t realize that farm workers can’t be in gangs! No matter, the people overwhelming want ALL illegals remigrated to their home country

Including the ones at Glass House Farms, where our Congressman Salud Carbajal showed up when ICE arrived, to defend the use of trafficked minors to grow marijuana for one of his major campaign contributors.

ICE arrested over 2000 illegal aliens in Minnesota. Among these, are:



  • Violent crime (homicide, assault, domestic violence) or gang affiliation: 75

  • Sex Offenses, Rape, Criminal Sexual Conduct (sub-category of violent crime): 28

  • Fraud, Theft, Illegal Reentry, Trafficking: 45

  • Drugs: 57

  • DWI: 7


Remember, these are all people who have either overstayed their visa or, had already been ordered to return to their own country or, jumped the border.


You must be embarrassed how much cheaper it would have been, had the leftist state government decided to allow law enforcement officials to work unimpeded by “protesters”, the fascists formally known as antifa, and two radical fools who got themselves shot for being stupid, and used state and local police to, you know, uphold the law. That was the problem all along.

We could have saved ALL that money if Kamala Harris, as Border Czar, had just done her job and upheld the law.
