"A Roxbury teen is facing charges after prosecutors say he filmed a group robbery on the Orange Line earlier this month, eventually joining in and kicking the alleged victim in the head. Mitchner, 18, pleaded not guilty Monday to charges of unarmed robbery, assault and battery with a dangerous weapon, and disorderly conduct on a public conveyance. His attorney did not immediately respond to a request for comment."
"According to the Suffolk County District Attorney's Office, seven teens boarded an Orange Line train at Downtown Crossing around 5:45 p.m. on Dec. 15 and confronted another passenger, who is also 18 years old. The verbal confrontation soon turned physical, and prosecutors say the assailants - mostly juveniles - surrounded the alleged victim and punched him. "The group threw the victim to the ground and continued to punch and kick his face and stomach area," the District Attorney's office said in a news release."

The verbal confrontation turned physical as assailants, mostly juveniles, surrounded, punched and threw the alleged victim to the ground, then continued to punch and kick his face and stomach area. Prosecutors say Mannice Mitchner, 18, approached with his cellphone, filmed the incident, then joined the fray and kicked the alleged victim in the head. The group took the victim's shoes and phone before fleeing at Massachusetts Avenue Station. Three juveniles have been arrested; two did not physically attack. Mitchner pleaded not guilty and is due back in court Jan. 22, and he has pending cases in multiple Boston-area jurisdictions.
