Police from the 107th Precinct in Fresh Meadows are still looking for two men in connection to a grand larceny investigation in Briarwood last month.
On the night of Monday, Nov. 21, the two suspects approached a car belonging to a 62-year-old man in front of 90-07 Jamaica Ave. and punctured his rear passenger side tire. The perpetrators then followed the man to a service station located at 84-04 Parsons Blvd. in Briarwood, where the victim was putting air into his flat tire.
One of the suspects was caught on surveillance video approaching the vehicle, opening the driver’s side door, and removing a bag containing $500 in cash, a gold ring, and a debit card, police said.
The suspects fled the scene southbound on Parsons Boulevard in a black sedan. There were no injuries reported as a result of the incident and the investigation remains ongoing.
The NYPD released surveillance video that shows the heist and photos of one of the suspects.
Anyone with information is asked to call the NYPD’s Crime Stoppers Hotline at 800-577-TIPS.
