NYPD looking for suspects in brutal daytime mugging on 3rd Street at 1st Avenue

Police are searching for a group of muggers who brazenly attacked a man at 12:40 p.m. yesterday on Third Street just west of First Avenue. 

CBS 2 reports that the 29-year-old victim, who suffered a broken jaw, was a delivery man. 

As the disturbing clip that the NYPD released shows, the suspects surrounded the man, repeatedly punching him while he was on the ground. When he gets up, someone punches him in the face. 

Police say the group took off with the victim's cellphone... Anyone with information that could help in the investigation is asked to call Crime Stoppers at 1-800-577-TIPS (8477). You may also submit tips online. All calls are strictly confidential.

“It started when he tried to take a picture of a car that apparently hit him while he was riding his bike. “When aggressive driving is not eliminated people get hurt.

Jeez,this happened two blocks from the police precinct and still no arrests? How many people were in that car that they surrounded him and beat him up? There must be cam footage by the Starbucks, the dormitory and by the traffic lights

There is a fundraiser for the man's surgery. Apparently, he was hit by a car and then beaten after he tried to take a picture of the license plate. https://www.gofundme.com/f/help-azdine-get-his-surgery-after-being-atacked
