The 19-year-old told police he was surrounded by four men at the Canal Street stop on the northbound train at about 3:30 a.m. on Oct. 22. The men grabbed his phone along with $200 after hitting him several times in his face. 

The group then fled the train.

Police were still investigating the incident.
