Hyatt-Regency-Valencia-ExteriorA social media meetup led to an attack Friday night inside a local hotel.

Two women, both aged 22, who were visiting from New York, arranged to meet two men on Tinder, at the hotel room in the Hyatt Regency Valencia.

“(The suspects) met them there, and the victims were assault in their room, and then the guys took off,” according to Sgt. Peacock of the Santa Clarita Valley Sheriff’s Station, who said the victims reported the incident as a physical, non-sexual assault.

The suspects also reportedly took property from the victims, as well, who suffered non-life-threatening injuries in the attack and were not seriously hurt.

  1. Seriously…who let’s a man they don’t know in a hotel room…asking for trouble!

  2. No one ever deserves to be assaulted, but who the hell invites men to their hotel room that they just met or haven’t met yet.

  3. What bothered me about this article was that both links said “two women were [assault.]…sic” What is sure to bother me now is anyone who will come out to condemn only the women for “risky” behavior & not ask why men are also engaging in the same “risky” behavior. Because in “the good old days, we used to meet nice people in bars or church or pumpkin patches!” or something like that? Women still got assault–ed & date-raped then too.

  13. Well they will probably be able to trace them through the web site and arrest them , horrible experience for those women.

  14. Mary Sanchez says:

    Julie Garcia….F that…..I’ll pull a Karate Kid!!!!

  15. Should’ve swiped left.

  16. Jerry Hickerson says:

    “Took property” translates to stole their drugs.

  17. Stole their property = jacked them for their drugs.

  18. Judith Pinto says:

    yep..didn’t take long for the victim to be at fsult. welcome to SCV

  19. Lynn Vogel says:

    Why is there no description of the assailants? That should have been the first questions of detectives.
    How ’bout hotel security footage? Should have obtained that immediately.
    I hope these girls are okay physically. But, I also hope they are cooperating fully with law enforcement so they can apprehend these two quickly.

  20. The city will not release anything else I bet. There are a lot of crimes like that and worse but the city has a department that buries those stories so we can remain “awesome town” ugh

  21. What happened to common sense? Just sayin…
