One of the victims in a spate of robberies in Central Park fought back when two teens — one armed with a gun — tried to mug him on a walking trail Friday night.

“I might just be crazy, but I was like, ‘You’re going to shoot me over a phone? You don’t have the balls to pull the trigger,’” said Ashikur Chowdhury.
Chowdhury, who’s 6’2” and weighs more than 200-pounds, had been out walking for much of the day and was headed home to Harlem when the teens tried to grab the 25-year-old’s phone on the darkened trail.

“I was on my phone just looking at the GPS trying to figure out where this bike path was leading…and all of the sudden a hand reaches over and tries to grab my phone,” he recalled.
