A 26-year-old woman was walking
her dog in Ridgewood
Tuesday morning, Aug. 3,
when a bicyclist rode up behind her in
a chain-snatching incident — and it was
all caught on camera.
The incident occurred around 9:30
a.m. in front of 17-39 Bleecker Street. Police
from the 104th Precinct are looking
for the man who approached his victim
on a dark bicycle, grabbed her by the
shirt and then forcibly removed a gold
necklace from her neck before taking
off northbound on Bleecker, according
to the NYPD.
The victim sustained minor
scratches on her neck and back but
refused medical attention at the scene.
The value of the necklace was around
$1,100, police said.
The cyclist is described as a man with
a dark complexion, with a thin build
and long, salt-and-pepper hair in cornrows.
He was last seen wearing black
shorts, a black T-shirt and eyeglasses,
and he was carrying a light brown
book bag.No arrests have been made.
the investigation is ongoing.
Anyone with information in regard
to the identity of the suspects is asked
to call the NYPD’s Crime Stoppers
Hotline at 800-577-TIPS (8477) or for
Spanish, 888-57-PISTA (74782). The
public can also submit their tips by
