HELL'S KITCHEN — A pair of suspects brutally beat two men with "blunt objects" on 10th Avenue after an argument this month, leaving a teen victim with a concussion and broken ribs, the NYPD said.
The attack occurred after a dispute between the four men outside 666 10th Ave., on West 47th Street, on Saturday, Dec. 19, around 2:30 a.m., police said.
The victims, a 19-year-old man and a 21-year-old man, were beaten by the male suspects with "blunt objects" that police could not describe further, the NYPD said. Surveillance images show each of the suspects carrying two long objects that appear to be poles.
The teen victim suffered a concussion and had his ribs fractured, while the older victim was left with a swollen right hand, police said.
Both were taken to Roosevelt Hospital, the NYPD said.
The suspects, who did not know the victims, were both between the ages of 20 and 25, police said. One was described as having a slim build and a mohawk, while the other had a heavy build and was wearing a dark baseball cap.
Police did not have information about the four men's whereabouts before the attack.
Anyone with information is asked to call the Crime Stoppers Hotline at 800-577-TIPS, log onto www.nypdcrimestoppers.com or text tips to 274637 (CRIMES), and enter TIP577.
