NYPD Seeks Help Identifying Suspects in Queens Robbery Spree

April 21, 2024

QUEENS, NY – The New York City Police Department is requesting public assistance to identify two male suspects linked to a series of robberies across the 114 and 115 Precincts. The first incident occurred in the early hours of Tuesday near 37 Avenue and 71 Street in the 115 Precinct, where a 34-year-old man was assaulted, threatened with a firearm, and robbed by the suspects. They fled north on a two-wheel scooter.

Shortly thereafter, a 29-year-old food delivery worker was robbed under similar circumstances near 75 Street and 30 Avenue. The suspects took his delivery bag, cell phone, wallet, and scooter, fleeing south on 75 Street.

The third incident took place around 4:00 AM at Queens Plaza North and 29 Street, where a 25-year-old male and a 25-year-old female were coerced into handing over their belongings, including phones, air pods, and a passport, before the suspects escaped westbound.

In all cases, the suspects were last seen fleeing on a two-wheel scooter. EMS responded to the scenes and treated the victims, but no serious injuries were reported.
