Police are searching for two suspects
wanted in connection with two
robberies in Ridgewood.
According to authorities, the two
suspects two restaurants in separate
incidents where they nabbed tip jars
and assaulted the individuals who
tried to stop them.
In the first incident, the suspects
entered La’Rose Grill Gourmet Café
— located at 1808 Weirfield St. — at 4
p.m. on Oct. 28 and walked out with
a tip jar containing $40, according
to authorities.
A 27-year-old man followed the
thieves outside to retrieve the tip jar,
but one of the suspects punched him
in the face, police said, adding that
the suspects fled northbound on
Seneca Avenue with the tip jar. The
victim refused medical attention at
the scene.
Police said the same suspects approached
a 30-year-old woman inside
Café M — located at 709 Seneca
Ave. — and walked out with a tip jar
containing $100.
The woman followed the suspects
outside, where she was struck in
the head with a closed fist. The duo
fled the scene with the tip jar in an
unknown direction. The woman
refused medical attention at the
scene.
