NEW YORK (1010 WINS) -- The NYPD was searching for two boys—one a teen and the other a younger kid—in an attack in Central Park that left a 69-year-old woman with broken bones.

Police released images Monday of the older suspect, who’s believed to be between 14 and 15 years old and was wearing a GAP sweatsuit.

The second suspect is believed to be 10 or 11 years old, according to police.

The victim was walking on East Drive, near East 106th Street, on the afternoon of Nov. 30 when she was assaulted around 4:30 p.m., police said.

The two boys came up from behind and pushed her to the ground, according to cops. They then fled the area.

The victim suffered a fracture to her left elbow and was transported to a local urgent care by private means. She was in stable condition, police said.

Anyone with information is asked to call Crime Stoppers at 1-800-577-TIPS.
