Flash mob teens ______________
at Family Court
By MENSAH M. DEAN Philadelphia Daily News

C: New English File Advanced p5
A FAMILY COURT judge yesterday ordered nine
of 11 teens accused of being flash-mob rioters to
be taken away in handcuffs. He gave another
home detention and he cleared the 11th arrested with somebody else's blood on his
hands - of all charges.
...
The teenagers who faced justice were arrested
for taking part in a Feb. 16 melee during which
upward of 150 youths stormed through the
Macy's at 13th and Market streets and a subway
concourse and threw snowballs at police officers
at 15th and John F. Kennedy Boulevard
