Ariana Grande’s brother Frankie Grande was viciously mugged in Midtown Manhattan, including by a 13-year-old, police said Tuesday, Nov. 15.
39-year-old Frankie Grande, a social-media personality, was walking on Eighth Avenue between 43rd and 44th streets around 6 p.m. Nov. 9 when the 13-year-old and a 17-year-old cohort smashed the victim in the back of the head, cops said.
Police said Grande was robbed of his Louis Vuitton bag with his iPhone, AirPods, sunglasses and wallet. He refused medical attention at the scene.
The two accused teen muggers were nabbed when they tried to use the celebrity big brother’s card nearby. They had on them an imitation pistol and razor blade, police said.
The pair was charged with robbery, grand larceny, unlawful use of a credit card, criminal possession of a weapon, criminal possession of stolen property, menacing and harassment, according to police.
