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.
