The assault and robbery took place in broad daylight at around 3 p.m.

The suspects struck the victim multiple times before they yanked the man’s backpack off of him, stealing his wallet inside, before they ran off heading north along the Grand Concourse.

Their victim refused medical attention and reported no injuries to police or emergency personnel.

Video surveillance at the scene caught the two men running away from the station.

Police described the first suspect as Hispanic man, last seen wearing a gray T-shirt, black jeans and black sneakers.

The second suspect was described as a male Hispanic, last seen wearing a black T-shirt with a white square image in front of the shirt, gray jeans and red sneakers with black laces.
