A 10-year-old boy has been hit in the head with a rock in Cooloongup.

The boy and his brother were riding to their uncle's house when they were approached by teenagers on a cycle path near Rockingham Train Station around 11.30am on Sunday.

Caleb McAlister told Nine News the offenders demanded they hand over their bikes, before he was hit with a rock.

"Me and my brother got off our bikes because they threatened us to a fight and (they) ditched a rock at my head," he said.

"We gave up our bikes so my brother made sure I didn't get hurt anymore."

Caleb suffered a wound just above his eye.

His mother took him to hospital for treatment.

Anyone with information should contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000.
