Police are searching for two
crooks who asked for a ride
before robbing a man in his
car at knifepoint in Glendale Saturday
night.
Authorities responded to a call
regarding a robbery in front of 78-
72 80th St. in Glendale just before
11 p.m. on March 14.
Upon arriving at the scene, officers
from the 104th Precinct were
informed by the 27-year-old victim
that two men who had requested a
ride entered his vehicle.
Once inside, one suspect flashed
a knife and demanded the driver
fork over his money before punching
him in the face, police said.
The second suspect exited the
vehicle, flashed a firearm and stole
$100 from the driver, according to
authorities.
The suspects then fled westbound
on Myrtle Avenue in a dark colored
vehicle.
The victim refused medical attention
at the scene of the incident.
Police said it is “unclear” if the
victim was a taxi, Lyft or Uber
driver.
Cops said both suspects have
light complexions. One suspect who
was last seen wearing dark colored
clothing is described as being 190
pounds and having short white
hair.
Cops said the second suspect,
last seen wearing dark clothing, is
approximately 5 feet, 10 inches tall
and 175 pounds with short black
hair.
