CENTRAL PARK — A group of four men punched a 17-year-old before stealing his wallet in Central Park Sunday night, the NYPD said.
The suspects — described as between the ages of 18 and 20 — attacked the victim at 7:45 p.m. at the intersection of Center Drive and Terrace Drive, also known as Olmsted and Vaux Way, police said.
The suspects stole his wallet, which contained $50 in cash, before fleeing, police said. Officials could not say where the teen had been punched or describe his injuries.
No arrests have been made, police said.
Five robberies have occurred in Central Park between September and early November, including an incident late last month in which four teens beat and robbed a woman, the NYPD said.
Most recently, a woman pushing a stroller near the park was knocked down and had her purse stolen.
