Two men approached the 14-year-old and asked him for his phone.

One of the attackers tried to stab him in the stomach but the boy pushed him away with both arms and punched the second man in the groin before fleeing.

Both attackers then left in the opposite direction.

A police spokesman said no description of the suspects was given.
