28043647

Two teens fled after mugging another teen of $5 in Point Breeze early Sunday.

The 15-year-old walked to get Chinese food at Dy Express, 1700 S. 20th St., but two teens started to follow him when he arrived at 20th and Mountain streets at 1:50 a.m., Detective Danielle Tolliver of South Detective Division said. One of the teens put his arm around him and said, “give me your money, young bull.” When he refused the other teen cut his left arm with a box cutter.

The teen handed over $5 and the duo fled running east on Mountain, Tolliver said.

The teens were described as black with a medium complexion, age 16 to 17 and thin. The first suspect was described as 5-foot-6 to 5-foot-7, clean-shaven and wearing a white polo shirt and black Adidas pants with stripes on each side. The second was described as 5-foot-10 to 5-foot-11, with a thin beard and wearing a white T-shirt, blue pants and black track sneakers.
