CORVALLIS, Ore. (AP) — Police in Corvallis are looking for two young men suspected of assaulting a 19-year-old woman while she was jogging.

Police say the woman had stopped to tie her running shoe Sunday afternoon when the two men asked her if she had any change. When she told them “no,” they asked for her wallet or an iPod, which she did not have.

Corvallis police said the men grabbed her, threw her to the ground and kicked her several times before they fled. The victim sustained minor injuries and called 911 when she got back home.

The suspects were described as a Hispanic male and a white male, both about 5-feet-10 with brown hair and in their mid-20s.
