The New York City Police Department released photos Wednesday of three alleged suspects wanted in connection with three separate assaults in the city on Saturday.

Police in New York City are asking for the public's assistance in identifying three people wanted in connection with three separate assaults on Saturday.

All three attacks took place within an hour and were located in the vicinity of East 15th Street and East 18th Street.

The first victim, a 40-year-old man, was attacked at approximately 3:25 p.m. while walking home from the Synagogue in the vicinity of East 15th Street and Avenue L, according to NYPD. He was approached by three strangers who punched him multiple times before fleeing on a scooter in an unknown direction.

Police said the man sustained minor injuries, but refused medical attention.
