Cops are looking for two male suspects with “medium builds” for assaulting a man at the station on 72nd and Broadway.
It started on a northbound 2 train at about 2:30 a.m. on Saturday, when a 32-year-old man engaged in a verbal dispute with the suspects. All three got off the train at 72nd Street and the dispute became physical. The unknown suspects “kicked and punched the victim numerous times about the body and pushed the victim onto the train tracks,” police say.
The victim suffered a broken nose and right middle finger. He was transported by EMS to St. Luke’s Hospital in stable condition.
In addition to having medium builds, one of the suspects is described as having a medium complexion. One was last seen wearing a red jacket and black pants, while the other was wearing all black.
Anyone with relevant information is asked to call the NYPD’s Crime Stoppers Hotline at 1-800-577-TIPS (8477) or for Spanish, 1-888-57-PISTA (74782). The public can also submit their tips by logging onto the Crime Stoppers website or by sending a direct message to @NYPDTips on Twitter.
Why do you keep referring to St. Lukes Hospital? It is now Mount Sinai West.
I am surprised, there are no cameras at that station???
with cameras like these, who needs them?
