QUEENS - Cops are looking for a pair of muggers who threw a beatdown inside a Burger King parking lot in Queens. 



At around 9 pm on October 13, a 46-year-old man was in front of the fast food eatery at 217-10 Hillside Avenue. Cops said two young men approached him and pushed him to the ground. 


As the man lay on the floor, the duo repeatedly punched him throughout his body. One of the attackers ripped a necklace off his neck and the other forcibly removed the victim’s iPhone. 



The attackers then ran off. 


The victim sustained injuries but refused medical attention at the scene. 


Cops said the stolen items are valued at $1,800. 


The NYPD released photos of the mugging suspects as they sat in a subway car. 


Anyone with information in regard to this incident 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 CrimeStoppers website at https://crimestoppers.nypdonline.org/ or on Twitter @NYPDTips.
