PHILADELPHIA (KYW Newsradio) — Philadelphia police have released surveillance video of a pair of suspects they say attacked and robbed a man in Old City last week.

Authorities say it was just after 2 a.m. on March 27 when two men came up behind the 33-year-old victim as he walked along Church Street near Front Street.

The suspects first asked for cash, according to police, then demanded it, pushing the man down after he handed over $400. They fled on foot and were last seen west on Church Street.

Police ask anyone who recognizes the suspect to call 911 immediately.
