PARK SLOPE, BROOKLYN — Two teenagers were robbed at gunpoint in Prospect Park Sunday by a duo who stole — among other things — the shoes off their feet, police said. At about 7:10 p.m. on March 6 the as-yet unidentified thieves walked up to the teens and pulled out a gun before grabbing their wallets, bags, credit cards, and shoes, according to the NYPD. The thieves ran away, leaving the 18-year-old and 16-year-old victims shoeless but unharmed in the park, police said. Police released a photo of the muggers but as of this week no arrests have been made and the investigation remains ongoing, according to the NYPD.
