A teen boy was beaten and robbed in Brooklyn by four men he met on Facebook Marketplace last week, authorities said Friday as they released surveillance footage.
Just before 7 p.m. on Tuesday, March 12, a 13-year-old boy listed his E-bike on Facebook Marketplace for sale and was contacted by a suspect who was interested in purchasing the E-bike, officials said.
They agreed to meet up on the corner of Kings Highway and West 5th Street in Gravesend.
During the meet up, the suspect and three other men began kicking and punching the boy in the head with closed fists and forcibly stole his E-bike before fleeing to parts unknown.
The teen sustained minor injuries to his head but refused medical attention at the scene.

Good luck to four illegal aliens who will go to jail and will be beaten up and raped by hungry prisoners. They will scream “Mommy!”
As a parent it just amazes me the trash human beings people raise these days. I’m guessing these losers probably still live with their parents, no job just criminals. Probably have other stolen property stored at their parents. Beating up a kid I’m sure they will go far on life.
Wow. What big, strong men. You sure showed that little 13 year old who’s boss, ganging up on him like a pack of filthy hyenas. SHAME ON YOU! I hope all four of you suffer an unfortunate accident that leaves you battered and bruised. Bunch of wusses…
They look like immigrants but this communist media will never say this but I will
Well, dumb kid, it is a lesson to be learned. I am pretty sure you did not bought the e-bike with your money and you did not consulted your parents before agreeing to meet some random strangers in a place where you had no control of the situation to sell the e-bike.
Hopefully your next lesson will be less painful…
