DAYTON, Ohio -- Two teens were arrested after they reportedly robbed a woman walking home with groceries, then took potatoes she just bought and threw them at her, police say.

The woman was walking home Thursday afternoon when the teens, dressed in black, stole the groceries along with her wallet, money and cigarettes, the Dayton Daily News reports.

The woman called 911 and told the dispatcher the teens didn't have any weapons, but they did throw the potatoes at her.

"Other than the potatoes did they have any weapons, like a gun or knife?" the 911 dispatcher asked.

"No but those potatoes hurt," the woman said.

The two boys, ages 14 and 15, were arrested about two hours later by Dayton police.
