The NYPD is seeking two individuals wanted in connection with two recent robberies.

One of the victims, a 23-year-old man, was struck in the head by a bullet fragment and was taken to Elmhurst Hospital in stable condition.
The male perp is described as being in his late 20s or early 30s with dreadlocks. The female is described as also late 20s or early 30s, wearing a drak jacket with a scarf over her head.
