MANHATTAN — Four teens randomly beat up a man on Lower East Side street last Monday morning before moving on to rob someone else, the NYPD said.

The quartet attacked the 41-year-old man, whose name was not released, outside 201 Stanton St., near East Houston Street, about 2 a.m. on June 16, police said.

The suspects, described as standing between 5-foot-7 and 5-foot-10, then fled and moved on to rob another person, a police spokesman said. The spokesman did not provide further details about the second victim or what was taken.

The first victim was in stable condition at Beth Israel and treated for facial injuries, the spokesman added.
