Coconut Creek PD Looking For Two Teens Who Attacked An Elderly Man During A Crime Spree
MIAMI (CBSMiami) - Police in Coconut Creek are trying to track down two teens who attacked an elderly man during a crime spree on March 9.
Video surveillance footage shows a 76-year-old man withdrawing money from the Bank Of America in the 4800 block of Copans Road.
Moments later, two kids are seen coming up from behind before they start hitting him, trying to take his money.

The two are also accused of stealing a package from someone's porch and trying to break into a car the same day.
