The NYPD is looking for a duo who violently robbed a man in East Flatbush last week.
It was reported to the NYPD that at 3:03 p.m. on Nov. 7, two unknown men followed a 74-year-old male and approached him from behind in front of 4701 Church Ave. One of the suspects then forcefully brought the victim to the ground, and the duo proceeded to drag the victim on the sidewalk.
The suspects took $100 in cash from the victim before fleeing the scene on foot to parts unknown. The victim sustained minor injuries to his hands and left knee.
Both suspects are described as men with dark complexions. The first suspect was last seen wearing a black hood, black face mask, black jacket, black pants and black shoes; the second suspect was last seen wearing a dark baseball cap, blue quarter-zip sweatshirt and red pants.
Anyone with information regarding this incident is asked to call the NYPD’s Crime Stoppers Hotline at 1-800-577-TIPS (8477) or for Spanish, 1-888-57-PISTA (74782). The public can also submit their tips by logging onto the Crime Stoppers website or on X @NYPDTips. All calls are strictly confidential.
