Goons mug B’klyn boy, 9
Police are looking for two crooks who mugged a 9year-old boy at a Brooklyn Target store earlier this month, cops said Thursday.
The child was shopping at the Atlantic Terminal Mall on Flatbush Avenue Jan. 10, holding what looked to be a toy lightsaber, when the two thieves approached and started chatting with him.
A video of the incident shows both men going down an elevator with the boy. Cops say they convinced him to go with them to an unspecified location.
Outside the Target, one of the men placed his hand over the boy’s mouth while the other swiped $282 from his pocket. They left the lightsaber and fled. It’s not clear why the boy had so much cash.
