BRONX - A teenage girl is recovering after her and a friend were attacked by four women inside a Bronx store, the NYPD said. 


At around 4 pm on January 26, a 15-year-old girl and a 17-year-old female were inside a store at 116 East Fordham Road when they got into a dispute with a group of females. 


The argument came to a boiling point when the group of four women pounced. Cops said the women repeatedly punched and kicked the teens. As the teens tried to shield themselves from the blows, the attackers forcibly removed the victims’ property. 


The attacking mob then ran out of the store and fled on Fordham Road towards the Grand Concourse. 


The 15-year-old victim was taken to nearby St. Barnabas Hospital where she was treated for injuries to the face and body.  


The NYPD released surveillance video of the four suspects. The first is described as a female with a dark complexion and a medium build. She was last seen wearing a black winter jacket and a white fur collar. 


The second suspect is a female with a dark complexion, a medium build and long black hair. She was last seen wearing a black bubble jacket. 


The third suspect is a female with a dark complexion and a medium build. She was last seen wearing a black winter jacket with a black fur collared hood. She also wore a pink shirt, gray sweatpants and pink slippers. 


The last suspect is a female with a dark complexion. She was last seen wearing a green bubble jacket. 


Anyone with information in regard to this incident is asked to 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.
