Cops are looking a trio who assaulted and robbed a man of his phone and shoes in Corona last month.
According to police, at 3:30 p.m. on Oct. 24, a 21-year-old man was standing in the vicinity of 105th Street and 34th Avenue when he was approached by seven unknown men on bicycles. The suspects proceeded to surround the victim and asked him what gang he was in.
The victim tried to flee by running northbound on 105th Street, but he was cut off by three unknown men who were waiting at the corner of 34th Avenue. The trio tripped and assaulted the victim, causing pain to his arms and knees, before fleeing the scene with the victim’s cellphone and shoes.
No arrests have been made at this time. The investigation is ongoing.
