HELL'S KITCHEN — Seven men beat and attempted to rob a man on a Hell's Kitchen street early Friday morning, the NYPD said.

The victim, 23, was walking in front of 610 W. 56th St., between 11th and 12th avenues, at 12:45 a.m. when he was attacked by the suspects, all of them wearing zip-up hoodies with white drawstrings, according to police and surveillance images.

The men hit the victim multiple times in the face and tried to take property from his pockets, but fled when they were unable to get anything, police said.

The man was taken to St. Luke's Hospital, where he was in stable condition.

Police released surveillance images of the attackers on Sunday night.
