The New York City Police Department is seeking the public’s help in identifying several suspects linked to a series of violent robberies across two precincts, which involved physical assaults and thefts.
The first reported incident occurred on Monday at noon at 138-23 39 Avenue, where a 27-year-old man was assaulted by three suspects who punched him multiple times and robbed him. Later that day, at approximately 4:05 PM at 8807 19th Avenue, an 18-year-old woman was robbed by an individual who subsequently fled the scene. Fortunately, there were no physical injuries reported in this case.
Another robbery took place on Sunday, June 9, around 9:30 PM at 132-27 Pople Avenue. Two individuals, a 22-year-old woman and a 39-year-old man, were assaulted and robbed by three suspects who displayed a firearm during the attack. The assailants managed to escape with approximately $32,000 and other valuables.
The following day, near Pidgeon Meadow Road and Fresh Meadow Lane, a similar violent encounter unfolded at about 11:20 AM. A group of six suspects assaulted a 33-year-old woman and a 39-year-old man, stealing around $10,700 in cash along with other items before fleeing on foot.
The NYPD has released images of the suspects involved in these incidents and urges anyone with information to come forward to assist in resolving these violent crimes. These events have prompted increased efforts by local law enforcement to capture the individuals responsible for this disturbing pattern of targeted robberies in the city.
