As the video begins, a person in a hooded sweatshirt can be heard demanding a phone from a 21-year-old woman. She appeared to resist as another person with a hooded sweatshirt joined in. The woman, holding tight to something in her hand, is knocked to the ground as she screams. The pair of people in hooded sweatshirts kicked her while she was down, eventually ripping the item from her hands before jumping into a silver car and driving off.

A handgun was involved, according to the Minneapolis Police incident report.
