BRONX - A dispute outside a Bronx club led to a beat down and robbery of a patron as well as the beating of a Good Samaritan who tried to help, cops said.  


At around 4 am on May 18, a 30-year-old man got into a verbal dispute with three men outside the The Azteca Club on East 170th Street in Mount Eden. Cops said a member of the group walked up to the man and began to repeatedly punch him in the face. As the victim lay staggered on the ground, the attacker ripped jewelry off the victim’s neck and wrist.  



Seeing the mugging, a 35-year-old tried to intervene and help the victim. However, another member of the group punched the Good Samaritan in the face. The attackers then ran off westbound on East 170th Street. 



Cops said both victims refused medical attention at the scene. 


The NYPD released surveillance video of the alleged attackers. 



The first suspect is described as a male with a light complexion.  He was last seen wearing a pink shirt and blue jeans. 


The second suspect is described as a male with a medium complexion. He was last seen wearing a black jacket. 



The third suspect is described as a male with a light complexion. He was last seen wearing all black and multicolored sneakers.
