BRONX - Police are asking for the public’s help in trying to catch a group of muggers who initiated a vicious beat down on a victim outside a Bronx chicken shack last month.


Back on August 26 at 1 am, a 43-year-old man was standing in front of a Kennedy Fried Chicken on Mount Eden Avenue. A group of three men approached him and knocked him to the ground.


The group began punching and kicking the man in the head. As he lay on the ground they removed the victim’s wallet which contained $550.


The attackers took off down Walton Avenue.




The victim took a cab to Bronx Care Hospital.


Anyone with information should call the NYPD's Crime Stoppers Hotline at 1-800-577-TIPS (8477) or for Spanish, 1-888-57-PISTA (74782). The public can also submit their tips by logging onto the CrimeStoppers website at https://crimestoppers.nypdonline.org/ or on Twitter @NYPDTips.
