Two teenagers were attacked by a group of young men who punched, kicked and stomped on them, then robbed them of their cell phones and cash, police said.
The 15 and 16-year-old, were standing in front of the Bushwick Houses at 811 Flushing Ave. on Sept. 14 at 2:24 p.m., when a group of teens approached them and started throwing punches.
A disturbing video of the robbery, released by police, shows the attack beginning with two young men, throwing repeated punches at a cowering victim.
As the assault continues, more teens rush into the fight to throw their own punches and stomp on the terrified teen who's trying to escape.
After the beating, the robbers grabbed the two teens cell phones and $22 cash from one boy and fled the scene, police said.
Emergency workers rushed to the scene and took the two boys to Woodhull Hospital where they were treated for bruising to their head and arms.
