Juvenile assaulted and robbed in York

Ryan Dickinson

YORK, PA – Detectives with the Northern York County Police Department are hoping surveillance photos of a suspect wanted for the assault and robbery of a juvenile on Albright Avenue can help them identify the suspect.

On Wednesday, a juvenile walking along Albright Avenue in the 700 block was approached by an unknown male subject wearing a jacket with a fur-lined hood. The suspect grabbed the child and shoved him up against a nearby wall and robbed his cell phone from his pants pocket.

The man then removed the boy’s backpack. He began rifling through the backpack and the child took advantage of the moment and fled.


If you can identify the suspect or have any information regarding this crime you are asked to contact the Northern York County Regional Police Department at 717.467.TELL (8355) or tips@nycrpd.org.
