LOWER EAST SIDE — Police arrested two teens last week for snatching a woman’s cellphone as she stood on a street corner, according to the NYPD.
The 21-year-old woman was looking at a map on her phone when four male suspects came up from behind her, grabbed her iPhone and fled the corner of Canal and Allen streets around 4:36 p.m. on Dec. 8, police said.
Police stopped two of the suspects, a 15-year-old and a 16-year-old in front of 192 East Broadway and arrested them, according to the NYPD.
Police said the $800 phone was recovered at the scene by a third party.
