Two teenagers robbed a nine-year-old boy of his cell phone at knifepoint in New York.

The boy, Alexis Gonzalez, was riding a bike in the Soundview section of the Bronx in New York when two teenagers threatened him with a box cutter and mugged him, CBS New York reports.

“They were trying to take my phone from my pocket, and then I said I don’t got nothing,” Gonzalez told CBS New York.

One of the teens threatened him with the box cutter, while the other snatched his cell phone from his pocket.

“They checked my pocket. Then they take a blade. Then they said if they don’t take the phone from me, they will cut me with a blade in my face,” Gonzalez said.

Police said the boy is uninjured and that they are still looking for the suspects.
