BRONX - An elderly man was beaten to the ground by a trio of robbers riding mopeds in the Bronx, the NYPD said.



At around 2 am on December 17, a 76-year-old man was walking in the vicinity of Webb Avenue and Sedgwick Avenue. Cops said a trio on three mopeds rode up behind the man. One of the drivers reached over and punched the elderly man in the head knocking him to the ground.


While the man lay on the ground, the attackers got off the mopeds and rummaged through his pockets pulling out his cellphone. One of the crew threw the phone to the ground damaging the screen.


The attackers then hopped back on their mopeds and fled on West Fordham Road.


EMS treated the victim at the scene for a laceration and pain to the head.
