Police say the two victims were at the intersection of 74th Street and Roosevelt Avenue just before 6:45 p.m. on Sept. 29 when they were engaged by four masked men.

The third suspect wore a grey hooded sweatshirt, blue shorts and white sneakers, while the fourth perpetrator wore a black hoodie, black pants and white sneakers.
There are no arrests, and the investigation remains ongoing.
