Cops seek suspect who broke elderly
woman’s elbow in Forest Hills robbery
The NYPD is looking for a man who allegedly assaulted and robbed an elderly
woman in Forest Hills over the weekend.
On Saturday, Jan. 3, around 5:15 p.m., an 83-year-old woman was walking on
the sidewalk in front of 112-01 Queens Blvd., when an unidentifi ed man got out
of a dark-colored SUV and approached her, according to the NYPD.
The man then grabbed the woman’s purse and threw her to the ground, cops
said.
The man got back in the car and drove off with the purse, which contained
around $50, an ID, credit cards and an iPhone, according to the authorities.
EMS personnel took the 83-year-old to NewYork-Presbyterian Hospital
Queens, where she was treated for a broken elbow.
The suspect later attempted to use the woman’s stolen credit card at a deli
located at 187 East 167th St., in Manhattan, police said. The NYPD recovered
surveillance footage of the suspect from inside the deli.
No arrests have been made and the investigation is ongoing.
