\"April 22: Forty to sixty kids boarded a train at the Coliseum stop and robbed seven passengers, beating up two;\
\
June 28: A group of four kids assaulted a passenger and made off with a cell phone at Dublin; and\
\
June 30: A woman on a train with about a dozen teenagers had her phone snatched by one them before the group got off at the Coliseum stop. Thankfully, a good Samaritan was on hand to retrieve the phone.\
\
So far, BART has refused to turn over surveillance video for any of these incidents.\
\...\
Allen told us the agency issued an explanation for why it is being tight-lipped about the thefts.\
\
"To release these videos would create a high level of racially insensitive commentary toward the district," she was told. "And in addition it would create a racial bias in the riders against minorities on the trains."\
