Univision confirmed one of the victims is a reporter and the other is a photographer. It's unclear if they were seriously injured.
Police said three men wearing ski masks and armed with guns got out of a black SUV and a grey sedan and robbed the crew before fleeing the scene.
This comes as police investigate eight other similar crimes, though detectives have not linked any of the incidents. In each case, police said a group of two to four people ambushed the victims and in some cases, the victims were beaten then robbed.

"I was out watching the police, working with them, and they were doing a great job trying to track a couple of crews down but again, they got up to high speeds and they called it off," he said. "They don't want to endanger other people. I know people want us to ... just chase every criminal, but when it gets to a situation where it's a liability of not only on the city ... the issue of hurting other pedestrians or drivers, you have to be very careful."
The incident remains under investigation.
