QUEENS, N.Y. – A 69-year-old woman suffered a fractured elbow after being pushed to the ground by two unidentified boys on Sunday afternoon, November 30, police said.

The assault occurred around 4:30 p.m. as the woman was walking southbound along 106th Street East Drive when the two males approached her from behind and shoved her without warning. The pair immediately fled the area in an unknown direction.

The victim was taken by private means to a nearby urgent care center, where she was treated for a left elbow fracture and listed in stable condition.

Investigators described the suspects as males with dark complexions. The first is believed to be between 14 and 15 years old, slim build, and was last seen wearing a gray “GAP” sweatsuit with white and black sneakers. The second is estimated to be 10 to 11 years old, also slim build, and was last seen wearing a gray hoodie, black jacket, black pants, and white sneakers.
