At around 4 pm on January 26, a 15-year-old girl and a 17-year-old female were inside a store at 116 East Fordham Road when they got into a dispute with a group of females.
The argument came to a boiling point when the group of four women pounced. Cops said the women repeatedly punched and kicked the teens. As the teens tried to shield themselves from the blows, the attackers forcibly removed the victims’ property.
The attacking mob then ran out of the store and fled on Fordham Road towards the Grand Concourse.
The 15-year-old victim was taken to nearby St. Barnabas Hospital where she was treated for injuries to the face and body.
The NYPD released surveillance video of the four suspects. The first is described as a female with a dark complexion and a medium build. She was last seen wearing a black winter jacket and a white fur collar.
