ATLANTA (AP) - Police say a woman in a parking lot outside Atlanta’s airport was attacked, beaten and robbed by a group of youths that included a 13-year-old girl.

Police tell WSB-TV that the woman in her late 20s was in her car and ready to leave around 9:30 p.m. Monday, when two very young teens approached her car window and asked for help. Authorities say they then attacked the woman and stole her car, driving it out of the lot.

Police say they’ve recovered the victim’s car and arrested the 13-year-old, but are still searching for two more suspects.
