13-year-old boy has scooter stolen at knifepoint in Brooklyn

A 13-year-old boy had his scooter stolen at knifepoint by a trio of thugs who surrounded him on a Brooklyn street in broad daylight, police said.

The brazen heist occurred when the teen was walking alone with his scooter on Empire Boulevard near Troy Avenue around 4 p.m. on Feb. 20, cops said.

One of the suspects pulled out a kitchen knife with a black handle, and his alleged accomplices proceeded to forcibly take the scooter from the boy, police said.
