Police from the 104th Precinct
in Ridgewood are looking for a
cyclist who was involved in an
alleged robbery on the afternoon of
Thursday, Sept. 30.
A 53-year-old man was at the
corner of Bleeker Street and Fresh
Pond Road in Ridgewood around
4:30 p.m. when a man riding a
black bicycle approached him. As
the suspect rode past the victim,
he punched him in the face causing
the man to fall to the ground, police
said.
The assailant proceeded to remove
$100 from the victim before
taking off on his bike traveling
westbound toward Menahan Street.
Although the victim sustained
bruising to his face, he refused
medical attention, according to the
NYPD.
The suspect is described as a man
in his 20s with a medium complexion,
weighing 150 pounds with a
medium build. He is approximately
5’9” with a long black ponytail. He
was last seen riding the black bike,
wearing black sweatpants, a gray
sweatshirt, a black backpack and
black sneakers, police said.
No arrests have been made. The
investigation is ongoing.
