Two Boston men have been arrested in connection to an assault that happened last week at one of the city's MBTA stations, officials said Saturday.
Transit police say Damos Reddick, 36, and Justin Mackenzie, 32, were arrested on Thursday for unarmed robbery and assault and battery with a dangerous weapon.
Around 9 p.m. Wednesday, transit police say a 38-year-old man was exiting the State Street station when he was attacked from behind by multiple men who punched and kicked him in his face and body.
According to police, once the victim was on the ground, one of the attackers removed the victim's cell phone and wallet from his pocket and then fled.
