The story is from WBZ in Boston:

Olympic gold medalist Jenny Thompson was attacked in Brookline on Monday.

Thompson, who won 12 medals in swimming in four Olympics, was riding her Vespa scooter just before 10 p.m. when she was approached by a car.

According to a police report, “two dark-skinned black males, approximately 5’7”” got out of the car and approached Thompson. “I didn’t register what was going on and I said ‘Your lights are out.’ And the guy was like , ‘What about your lights?’ and proceeded to punch me in the face … then pushed me down and tried to take my scooter,” explained Thompson. “I fought them off and was screaming at the top of my lungs and people came out of the houses.”
