BRONX - Cops have released new surveillance video of a pair of alleged muggers linked to a spring early morning mugging in the Bronx. 


The attack took place at around 2 am on April 10. A 25-year-old man was standing in front of 645 Melrose Avenue when he was approached from behind by two men. 



Cops said without warning the men punched and kicked the victim to the ground. While helpless on the sidewalk, the attackers continued to punch and kick the victim. 


The attackers ripped the victim’s fanny pack off of him and ran away westbound on eastbound on East 152 Street towards Courtlandt Avenue.



EMS rushed the victim to Lincoln Hospital where he was treated for his injuries. Cops said the attackers made off with $450 cash and the victim’s iPhone 13. 


Recently investigators found new surveillance video of the suspects and released it hoping it would lead to arrests. 


The first suspect is described as a male with a dark complexion. He is 5 foot 8 and 180 pounds with a slim build. He was last seen wearing a blue jean jacket, gray hooded sweatshirt, dark colored pants and dark colored shoes.



The second suspect is described as a male with a dark complexion who is 5 foot 10 with a medium build. He was last seen wearing a dark colored jacket, gray hooded sweatshirt, dark colored pants and dark colored shoes.
