MANHATTAN - A pair of knife-wielding teen robbers attacked a teenager outside The City College of New York and another location, the NYPD said. One of the suspects has been arrested and another is still at large. 


At around 1 pm on December 1, a 15-year-old male was walking on 138th Street and Amsterdam Avenue outside The City College of New York. Cops said two young men ran up to him and one displayed a knife. The pair forcibly removed the teen’s property before running off.

Cops said the same crew struck again at around 6:30 pm on December 9. A 15-year-old male was walking in front of 3505 Broadway when the pair ran up to him. One of the crew pulled a knife while the other forcibly removed the jacket off the victim. 


The two ran off but caught the attention of police officers who ran after them. The officers were able to capture one of the robbery suspects. Since the suspect is a 15-year-old cops could not release his name. 


Investigators said the suspect who brandished the knife is still at large.
