Man beaten by group of young men --- Suspects Arrested.

Philipsburg:---Police were called on Sunday to rescue a young man who was being beaten by a group of young St. Maarten men. Police Spokesman Ricardo Henson said the incident occurred around 02:30 am near the Dutch Quarter Medical Clinic.
On arrival at the scene, police encountered the victim identified as O.A who later told police that he was suffering from chest pains. O. A also suffered other visible injuries.
The victim told police that while he was near Tan Tan Supermarket, two unknown men approached him and asked him to give up all his money and other personal belongings including his cellular phone.
The man said he also noticed that some other men were approaching so he told his attackers he did not have monies. Based on that response the two unknown men along with their other friends began beating O.A. He said his attackers kicked and punched him all over his body, and even threw stones at him. Somehow, the victim said he managed to run away from his attackers. On the scene, the victim pointed out two of his attackers to police who was immediately arrested. Later that morning police noticed two of the other suspects identified as C.O.W and T.A from St. Maarten driving around in a car with license plate 967ZZ971 in the Belvedere area. Police also arrested them. All four suspects in this case remain behind bars.
