Police are looking for three men who robbed a duo in the Bronx in a cinderblock-heaving, plastic crate-flinging attack that sent both victims to the hospital last week.

The 47- and 25-year-old victims were standing on Southern Boulevard shortly after 3 a.m. July 7 when the trio approached them
, according to police.

One of the suspects grabbed a piece of cinderblock and threw it at the 25-year-old, hitting him in the head. That same suspect then chucked a plastic crate at the other victim and dropkicked him to the ground, while a second suspect punched the 47-year-old victim in the face. More punches were then leveled on the 25-year-old, who was then hit in the head with the plastic crate.

The beatings of both victims continued for a time until the trio of suspects stole the older victim's wallet and they all ran off. Both victims were taken to a hospital for lacerations to their heads and pain and bruising from the beatings.

They are expected to be OK.

A trio ganged up on two men in the Bronx — striking one with a cinder block and another with a plastic crate — in a caught-on-video attack before robbing one of them of his wallet.

The two victims, 25 and 47, were on Southern Boulevard near Avenue St. John in the Woodstock section around 3:10 a.m. July 7 when three men approached them, cops said.

A young-looking suspect is shown on the footage picking up a cinder block from in front of a business and chucking it at the 25-year-old victim.

The video then cuts to the same suspect throwing a plastic crate at the older man — who is already on the ground — before all three attackers punch and kick him, the clip shows.

Meanwhile, one of the suspects allegedly targeted the younger victim again — striking him with the plastic crate.

The trio swiped the older victim’s wallet, which held $450, before bolting, cops said.

Both victims were taken in stable condition to Lincoln Medical Center, with pain and bruising to their heads and bodies.
