Two teens charged with railway robbery

Two females have been charged over a violent robbery outside Dandenong railway station.

A 29-year-old Dandenong woman was allegedly approached by the pair near the Foster Street entrance about 4.40pm on Wednesday 21 August.

Without warning, the victim was felled by a strike to the face, police say.

The teens then continued to beat the victim on the ground, took her purse and run away.

They were followed across several streets by a witness, who called triple-0.

An 18-year-old and a 17-year-old, both from Dandenong, were soon after arrested. They were charged with robbery and assault.

The pair were remanded to face a court on 22 August.
