Two women beat and robbed a man and woman in their 60s inside a the elevator of a Greenwich Village subway hub last month.
The ugly incident unfolded at the West 4 Street station at approximately 8 p.m. on Friday, May 26, cops said.
The two female suspects approached the 64-year-old man and a 67-year-old woman inside the subway station’s elevator, before they began punching the victims multiple times in a ferocious attack, the NYPD said.
They then forcibly snatched the man’s cell phone after he tried to snap a pic of his assailants, according to the NYPD.
The women’s efforts to steal evidence of the attack were in vain as the NYPD released surveillance footage of the suspects — one of whom wore bright red pants and a dark T-shirt while her accomplice donned a bright red shirt and dark pants.
The woman in the dark shirt was seen pushing a blue shopping cart after the assault.
The victims were taken to Lenox Health Greenwich Village by EMS and were treated for injuries while their attackers fled the scene on a southbound F train, cops said.
