At around 4 am on October 14, a 30-year-old man was riding a northbound Number 6 train. As the train neared the Cypress Avenue station two men approached him.
Cops said one of the men held a baseball bat and threatened the straphanger to hand over his property. The victim quickly emptied his pockets and handed over his property.
The batman’s accomplice yanked the bike away from the victim and the two got off at the next station.
The NYPD released surveillance video of the suspects walking off the train and heading to East 143rd Street with the bike in tow.
Cops said the victim took himself to Lincoln Hospital out of precaution.
The first suspect is described as a male with a light complexion and a beard. He wore a dark hoodie.
