Police are searching for two teens they say assaulted a man near the Forest Av subway station in Ridgewood last week.

The attack, police say, happened outside 66-94 Forest Ave. at around 4:10 p.m. on Nov. 1.

Two suspects, described as 16-year-olds, allegedly approached the 30-year-old victim in an aggressive manner, with one saying “I’ll f– you up, I’m blood,” an NYPD spokesperson said.

The two assailants then punched and kicked the victim, causing pain and swelling to his jaw and wrists.

The assailants were accompanied by two females, ages 16 and 17, who were keeping lookout, police say.

The perpetrators were last seen fleeing northbound on Forest Ave.

The 30-year-old, meanwhile, was transported to Wyckoff Heights Medical Center.

The suspects are both described as male and White Hispanic.

Anyone with information is asked to call the 104th Precinct Detective Squad at 718-386-2723.

Twenty people indicted in Queens-based $4.6M vehicle theft ring after three-year probe: DA

Twenty individuals were indicted and variously charged in a wide-ranging scheme to steal cars in Queens, throughout New York City and its suburbs, following a three-year investigation by the Queens District Attorney’s Office, the NYPD, and the New York State Police dubbed “Operation Hellcat,” into the criminal enterprise based in Queens.

Some of the vehicles were stolen from owners’ driveways, some with the keys or key fobs inside. The stolen vehicles were often sold through advertisements on social media platforms such as Facebook and Instagram. The defendants are charged in nine separate indictments for a total of 373 counts, Queens District Attorney Melinda Katz announced on Thursday.
