mayoral candidate viciously beaten after iPhone stolen

Just another day in the Land of No Fathers... [i]The runner-up in the Minneapolis mayoral election is recovering after being robbed and brutally beaten Thursday night at the Mall of America. Mark Andrew, 63, was at a Starbucks inside the mall at around 7 p.m. Thursday when a man grabbed his phone off his table and ran off. [b]When Andrew went after him, he was tackled by two teenage girls – aged 18 and 17 — one of which began beating him with a billy club. During the attack, they told Andrew, “We’re going to kill you,” police say.[/b] Andrew was left with a large gash on his head that required nine stitches. He has since been released from the hospital. Graphic Photo: Mark Andrew After The Beating Andrew said Friday that he chased after the thief, because he’s not a bystander by nature. “If somebody is gonna do that to me or somebody else, I’m not a bystander by nature I’ll go in and fight,” he said. The two women who attacked Andrew were arrested and are in custody. The 18-year-old was identified as [b]Letajia[/b] Shapree Cutler-Cain, of Brooklyn Park. She is pictured above and is being held pending felony charges of aiding and abetting aggravated robbery. Police are still searching for the male suspect. Andrew’s phone was found Thursday by shoppers.[/i]

    From a different article: [i]A witness told police she saw the trio sitting in the shop when Andrew walked in. The male took off with the phone, and when Andrew gave chase, the two women confronted him outside. The complaint said Cutler-Cain jumped on his back and the younger teen struck him repeatedly on the head with the baton. As Andrew struggled with the women, Cutler-Cain gouged his face with her fingernails, yelling at him: “I’m going to kill you! Let me go or I’m going to kill you!” Police said Andrew was bleeding profusely from a large cut on the top of his head and from his mouth. He also had bruises and abrasions on his face. He said that as they beat him outside, no one at the packed Starbucks intervened. “They were too afraid,” Andrew said. He guessed the police came after about five minutes. Upon their arrival, Andrew said the women told police that he had assaulted them first, but a witness inside the shop confirmed his account. Even after authorities detained the attackers, the women told Andrew [b]they would have him killed.[/b] “They’re damaged kids, and maybe they’re too far gone, but I think there’s redemption for everybody,” Andrew said. “So we’ll try to find a way for them to get in a place where they can turn their lives around.”[/I]
