SOUTH RICHMOND HILL — Police were seeking assistance in identifying two suspects wanted in connection with a mugging in South Richmond Hill last week.
Police said the 12-year-old victim was walking along 111th Street at about 4 p.m. when two suspects approached him from behind, pinned him up against a tree and demanded he hand over his cellphone.
The victim complied and the suspects fled.
The suspects are both described as black males in their late teens. One was wearing a gray hooded sweatshirt, gray backpack and dark pants and the other suspect was wearing a yellow sweatshirt with the No. 33 on the front, dark pants and a black backpack.
