NEW YORK (1010 WINS) — Police are searching for two men accused of robbing a teen boy at a Brooklyn subway station last month, authorities said Thursday.
At approximately 3:13 p.m. on Friday, Jan. 5, a 15-year-old boy was approached by the two suspects on the southbound Q train platform at the Newkirk Plaza train station in Flatbush.
Acting in concert, the duo simulated possession of a knife and forcibly removed the teen boy’s jacket.
The jacket was valued at $300, officials said.
The suspects were last seen fleeing the out of the station on foot.
The victim was uninjured.
Anyone with information in regard to this incident is asked to call the NYPD’s Crime Stoppers Hotline at 1-800-577-TIPS (8477).
