Witnesses reported a man down and bloodied outside the Rossmoor Safeway store in the 1900 block of Tice Valley Boulevard after he was assaulted by a carload of young men wearing hoodies.

The trio left their victim and escaped in an older model red sedan, Walnut Creek police quickly flooding the area to render aid to the victim – who was ultimately taken to a local hospital for treatment – and search for the suspects.

The robbery was reported at approximately 11 p.m. The assailants, however, turned out to be four women.

A car similar in description to the vehicle used in the assault was stopped by police a short distance away and four teens were arrested after their car was stopped on nearby Chives Way.

      What’s that mean? They were immediately apprehended and arrested. They will be prosecuted. Who are you trying to point finger at?

        Sorry, but I agree with Jeff. The trend has clearly been to release the people right away with no consequences… then they go out and do it again, and again even more emboldened. And this is what the judges, DAs and politicians who make the laws ( or choose not to enforce the laws ) that we voted in have been doing.

          I didn’t vote for them. But I got stuck here with the herd mentality of Contra Costa county and California at large.

          Can you now explain why, after CA had a Three Strikes law that sent people to prison for life still had crime? Or maybe 
 just maybe .. it’s a lot more complex of an issue than just lock ‘em up.

          Every post about a crime, it’s the same thing. “We need to get pack to punishing all of those criminals” as if that ever stopped. But we do know when it was even more extreme, it didn’t give us a miracle fix to crime.

    Fine young women, beating up on an old man! I wish there would be consequences, I doubt if they’ll be punished though.

    Great that they caught them. Now give them a punishment they won’t forget.

  8. Dana on Aug 8, 2025 at 5:03 pm

    Start with a good spanking and finish by sentencing them to work in a senior care facility

  9. Jennifer on Aug 8, 2025 at 7:15 pm

    Throw the book at them. I don’t want him anywhere near seniors. They might further their abuse.
