OAKLAND — A boy and girl, both 16, were arrested for robbing a 16-year-old girl of her cellphone Monday at the MacArthur BART Station, authorities said Tuesday.

The victim was struck and pushed to the ground trying to chase the suspects, who were captured moments later by BART police, authorities said.

The robbery happened about 5:28 p.m. Monday on a platform at the station. One of the suspects grabbed the girl’s cellphone, and they both started running away with her in pursuit. When the girl caught up to them in another part of the station, the girl struck her with her hand and pushed her to the ground, authorities said.

BART police caught the suspects a few blocks away at 34th Street and Martin Luther King Jr. Way. A third juvenile who was with them was briefly detained but was not arrested, authorities said. The cellphone was not recovered.

The suspects, both from Oakland, were booked at Alameda County Juvenile Hall and issued prohibition orders, which prohibit them from entering the entire BART system for up to 90 days, authorities said.
