NEW YORK - The NYPD wants to find seven people who attacked a 14-year-old boy inside a subway station in East New York, Brooklyn. 

The assault took place on Mar. 14 at about 3:57 p.m. on the mezzanine of the Van Siclen Avenue station.

The teen was approached by the group when they suddenly began punching him in the head and body, according to police.  In a video, taken by one of the suspects, it shows the boy cowering in a corner as he is repeatedly pummeled.  He is then seen curled up on the ground as the attack continues.

He suffered swelling and bruising. The suspects took off from the station and have not been caught.
