Police are looking for a pair of teens accused of robbing two women at the West Fourth Street subway station in Manhattan.

The first incident happened shortly after 12:30 p.m. on November 26.

Police say the teens asked a 26-year-old woman for the time, and when she pulled out her phone, they slapped it out of her hand, picked it up off the ground and ran off.

They struck again on November 29 around the same time, according to police.

Police say one of the teens held a 21-year-old woman's arms from behind as the other snatched a cell phone from the victim's hand.

No one was hurt in either incident.
