At around 6.30pm on Monday, April 5, the boy was pushing his electric scooter along an alleyway between Azalea Close and Rowan Close in Hazlemere when he was approached by two men.
The men told the teen to give them his scooter, before one of them hit the boy with a metal rounders bat, causing the scooter to be dropped.
One of the men then took the scooter whilst the other chased the victim as he fled the scene.
