A potential mugging victim fought off two robbers Saturday in Massapequa Park after they demanded cash, police said.

Kenneth Hutchinson, 19, of 1837 Lurting Ave.; and Anthony Raia, 19, of 1035 Neill Ave., both of the Bronx, were arrested after they were linked to the case following a 911 call by the victim, police said.
