The NYPD is looking for two men
who robbed a woman who was
selling fl owers in Ridgewood
last week.
On Monday, Aug. 17, around 6 p.m.,
an unidentified man approached an
18-year-old woman selling flowers at
the Ridgewood Flower Shop, located
at 357 Saint Nicholas Ave., according
to the NYPD.
The man took out a gun and demanded
the woman hand over cash,
while his accomplice played lookout
outside the store, police said.
The woman handed over around
$500 in cash to the thieves, who fled
on a motorcycle in an unknown direction,
according to the NYPD.
The woman was not injured as a
result of the robbery.
No arrests have been made and
