The two suspects entered the Mobil gas station located at 67-20 Main St. at 1:30 a.m. on Nov. 19 armed with a gun and demanded money, authorities said. According to police, the victim at the station complied and then the suspects fled with an undetermined amount of cash and the victim’s cellphone. The first suspect – described as a black male – fled on foot, and the other – a Hispanic male with tattoos on his left forearm and chest — fled in a red Jeep Grand Cherokee. There were no reported injuries. Authorities have released surveillance photos of the suspects and the Jeep used during the incident. 114th Precinct Astoria, LIC, Woodside, Jackson Heights Two men wanted for stealing electronics from Astoria apartment Police are looking for two suspects who broke into an Astoria apartment on an afternoon in September and stole two computers. On Sept. 24 at 1 p.m., authorities said, the two men entered a third-floor apartment on Broadway and took a Macbook Air and Surface Pro 3 computer. Police described the first suspect as being in his mid 20s, standing 5 foot 6 inches tall, weighing 150 pounds, wearing a green T-shirt and black jeans, and carrying a small backpack. The second man is described as being in his early 40s, standing 5 foot 9 inches tall, weighing 180 pounds, wearing sunglasses and a black American Eagle Outfitters long-sleeved shirt, and carrying a dark laptop/messenger bag.

Subsequent to a video canvass of the area, the NYPD’s Highway Collision Investigation Squad Detectives retrieved photos of a man who exited from the passenger side of the black Toyota Camry that struck and killed 17-year-old Jaremello Ovidio shortly after the incident on Dec. 8. Ovidio was crossing the street at the intersection of Junction Boulevard and Northern Boulevard, from the southeast corner to the northeast corner, when the vehicle struck him and took off. Detectives would like to interview the man in regards the collision. Cops looking for man who brutally beat girlfriend in Corona Police are asking for help in finding a man who assaulted and left his girlfriend in critical condition last month. On Nov. 29 at 4 a.m., officers from the 115th Precinct responded to a 911 call for a female assaulted at a 93rd Street location. There they found the 35-year-old woman with multiple injuries to her face and head. She was taken to Elmhurst Hospital where she is in critical, but stable condition. Following an investigation, authorities said, the NYPD identified her attacker as 29-year-old Tomas Rivera, who also goes by Jorge, and stands at 5 foot, 6 inches tall and weighs about 220 pounds. Ridgewood man pleads guilty to animal cruelty for starving dog A Ridgewood man pleaded guilty on Dec. 15 to felony animal cruelty charges after dropping off a starving boxer at a shelter and later denying that he was the owner of the dog, according to Queens District Attorney Richard A. Brown. Anthony Estevez, 25, of Metropolitan Avenue was arrested on Oct. 19, six days after he brought a malnourished boxer to an Animal Care and Control (ACC) shelter located on Queens Boulevard. Estevez claimed that he found the dog lying in a park and that he was willing to adopt the dog after it recovered, according to police. Later, authorities said, Estevez provided ACC with a false address, which actually was his neighbor’s home, and he reneged on his previous promise to adopt the dog. Police began investigating the case after receiving an inquiry from the New York Daily News. When interviewed, authorities said, Estevez kept lying about owning the dog. The man eventually later confessed the dog was his and that he took it to the shelter because he didn’t want the dog to die in his bedroom, according to officials. After Estevez was arrested, a court-authorized search warrant of Estevez’s apartment was executed, and officials didn’t find any food or any other items necessary to care for a dog. According to ACC records, the dog’s condition was written down as “not enough energy to walk…after dog left there were blood stains in the kennel.” At the time it only weighed 25 pounds and its condition was “very acute in terms of being emaciated and skeletal when it was brought to the shelter.” Based on the dog’s bone structure and height, it should have weighed around 60 to 65 pounds, according to authorities. However, based on the “Purina Scale” — which runs from level one, meaning very emaciated, to level nine, meaning very obese — the dog was rated to be a level one. The veterinarian at the time allegedly said that it would take weeks, if not months, for a dog of its size to become a level one if it had started out as healthy. Since then, the dog — who has now been named Brewster — has recovered and is expected to be adopted soon. Estevez was sentenced to a conditional discharge and is now banned from owning an animal for three years. He must also register as an animal abuser with the New York City Department of Health.
