In the viral footage, two young men were captured on surveillance cameras waylaying a man dressed in a suit a few minutes to 7am before making away with his laptop bag and what looked like a wallet and phone.
The suspects threatened the helpless man with a knife and pistol before he surrendered the items.
After they got away, the man is seen appealing for help. A guard manning the building where the incident occurred appears but not before the men had disappeared.
