"Several people in a group assaulted her knocking her to the ground," police said. "The suspects then continued to punch and stomp the victim rendering her unconscious."
The woman was treated at a nearby emergency room, investigators said.
Police released photos of eight people wanted in connection to the beating. Following the attack, some members of the group can be seen walking away, while at least one of them hops on a bike, video shows. Photos show at least three of the suspects used bicycles.
Police said that anyone who spots the suspects should call 911 immediately. Tips -- which police say can remain confidential -- can be texted or called into 215-686-8477 or submitted online, police said.
