Actually, it's the other way around: your son tried to attack someone whom he thought was at his level (give or take one), but because user data is corrupt on the server side, the person he thought he was attacking is actually someone else in a different neighbourhood at a different level, and usually with higher stats. The avatar on the Rival List, as well as the one walking around his/her supposed hood, may look correct, but everything else isn't. This has been confirmed by other players with iOS devices (myself included). This is a fairly recent issue, most likely stemming from the last iOS game patch.
If your son wants to increase his chances of attacking someone successfully, he should check his rival's stats before engaing him/her to a duel.

This is a bug on robberies. At least it is on my system.
The first time you try to rob something that has already been robbed by someone else (very recently) it will sometimes do this. Kinda like the system trying to catch up on things but trying to do two things and once. The default is to just make it so you lost the robbery.
Sucks too cause you lose explosives on what should be an easy robbery.
