    Police said that a 46 year old man was in front of 813 55th Street on August 10th, 2017 at 11 PM when he was approached by two black men who flashed police shields at him before placing him in handcuffs.

    The suspects drove the victim around in a vehicle before robbing him of $1,600, a Chase card, an iPhone and jewelry.

    The suspects then entered the victim’s residence near 51st Street and 8th Avenue at approximately 3 AM and tied up a 50 year old woman before leaving the apartment with $1,000 and jewelry. The two men left in a minivan, heading in an unknown direction.

    Both victims declined medical attention.

    Do they seriously think that someone could identify anyone in that video?
    “Hello, Crime Stoppers? Yeah, you know that video about the robbery suspects? See, in that video there’s a black guy in a hoodie. Well, I was on the D train about a week or two ago, and I’m 100% sure there was a black guy wearing a hoodie in the next car. How much is my reward?”
