Teen terrors swipe Citi Bikes from men in Central Park
Three knife-wielding teens robbed two men of their Citi Bikes in Central Park in the middle of the afternoon, police said Thursday.
The victims, ages 25 and 26, rented the bikes and rolled into the park near the Fifth Ave. entrance at E. 79th St. about 3:30 p.m. when the three teens stopped them, police said.
“That’s our bike!” one of the teens said, pointing at the trademark blue and white cycles that can be rented by the hour.
The same youth pulled a small knife and demanded the two men hand over the bikes, threatening to harm them if they didn’t do as they were told, cops said.
The trio suspects rolled off with the bikes, leaving the victims unharmed.
No arrests have been made.
