BRONX - A 15-year-old boy was punched, stabbed and robbed at a Pelham Parkway subway station in the Bronx, the NYPD said. 



Investigators released new surveillance images of the three suspects wanted in the attack on the teen last month. 


At around 10 am on January 18, a 15-year-old male was at the Pelham Parkway subway station of the Number 2 and 5 trains. Three men approached the teen and demanded his property. When the teen refused, one of the men punched him in the face, cops said. 


As the attackers continued to punch the young victim, one of the group pulled out a knife and stabbed the teen three times in the buttocks, cops said. The crew then rumaged through the victim’s pockets and tried to forcibly remove his property.  



The attackers ran out of the station and fled in an unknown direction. 


The victim was rushed to nearby Jacobi Medical Center where he was listed in stable condition. 



The NYPD released surveillance photos of the alleged attackers. The first suspect is a male with a dark complexion. He was last seen wearing a black jacket with a gray hoodie underneath and dark knit cap. He also wore gray sweatpants with black and orange sneakers. 


The second suspect is a male with a dark complexion. He was last seen wearing a black bubble jacket. He also wore black pants and black sneakers. 



The final suspect is a male and has a medium complexion. He was last seen wearing a dark blue jacket with a tan hoodie underneath. He wore dark blue sweats with black and yellow sneakers, possibly Air Jordan Retros. 


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).
