Kids Accused over Race Hate Attack

Two children are accused of involvement in the racial bashing of an African woman in Hobart last month.

Police have made four arrests over the incident on Charles Street at Moonah.

It's alleged two of the males yelled racial slurs before assaulting the woman, her boyfriend and two bystanders who tried to intervene.

Two boys aged 14 and 16 will be dealt with by the children's court, while two men aged 18 and 22 have been bailed to reappear at a later date.
