Two people have been charged over a serious assault on a woman and her daughter who were attacked outside their home in Auckland in July.
The 55-year-old was viciously attacked as she walked from her house to her car as she left to get a takeaway for dinner, and knocked unconscious. Her daughter rushed to her aid and was also assaulted.
Two teenagers were today charged in relation to the assault, police said.
A 17-year-old man has been charged with aggravated robbery and unlawful taking in connection with the assault and appeared in the Auckland District Court today.
A 15-year-old boy was referred to Youth Aid for Youth Court proceedings facing the same charges.
