Police from the 104th Precinct are
looking for three men who were
caught on video following a robbery
in Middle Village in July.
On Sunday, July 18, a 14-year-old
boy was walking opposite 67-59 Metropolitan
Ave. when the three men
approached him and demanded his
cellphone, wallet and AirPods.
The victim refused and one of the assailants
lift ed his shirt to display a black
object in his waistband before saying,
“Give me your stuff or I’ll kill you,” according
to the NYPD.
The victim, fearing for his safety,
complied and the three men fl ed on foot
to parts unknown, police said. There
were no injuries reported.
One of the suspects had a thin build
with long hair tied up in a bun, and was
wearing dark-colored shorts, a white
mask, white socks and sandals and a
white T-shirt.
The second man had a medium build
and short curly black hair. He was wearing
dark-colored shorts, a black mask,
blue and white sneakers and a white
T-shirt.
The third man had a thin build and
was last seen wearing dark-colored
track pants, a dark blue baseball cap, a
blue mask and dark-colored sneakers,
black glasses and a royal blue Adidas
T-shirt.
