BRONX - Two female muggers beat a woman in the face with a scooter during a robbery at the Yankee Stadium station, cops said. 


The NYPD released surveillance video of the suspects who look like high school students. Cops said the pair are wanted for a vicious beat down over a purse. 



At around midnight on April 17, a 56-year-old woman was getting off a subway train at the Yankee Stadium station at River Avenue and East 161 Street. Cops said as she exited the train, two girls in their teens or early 20s began arguing with her. 


According to investigators, the girls said, “What a beautiful purse” in Spanish. 



Then one of the suspects swung a metal scooter into the victim’s face. As the victim was stunned, the two attackers started punching her repeatedly throughout her body. 


The attackers then grabbed the victim’s purse and ran out of the station. 



The victim was rushed by EMS to Lincoln Hospital where she was treated for bleeding and bruising on her face, arm and hands. She was listed in stable condition. 


The first suspect is described as a female with a light complexion and dark hair. She was last seen wearing a light blue jacket, gray sweatpants and a black face mask. 


The second suspect is described as a female with a light complexion and blonde hair. She was last seen wearing eyeglasses, a light blue jacket with a black shirt underneath and black pants. 



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).
