The NYPD has issued a public warning amid a crime spike in New York's iconic Central Park.

In an update shared on the NYPD X account, law enforcement revealed a 350% increase in reported robberies thus far in comparison to the same period last year.

Most of the robberies occur during the evening and usually target electronics, including phones and expensive headphones, said NYPD Chief of Department Jeffrey Maddrey.

Grand larcenies have also skyrocketed, with 12 reported incidents in the first four months of this year versus eight reported in the first four months of last year.

"This is one of the most iconic locations in NYC; it's heavily used; all types of events happen here; and with that, we have an obligation to make sure the community knows what's going on. This helps us increase public safety," added Maddrey.

Police have ramped up patrols in Central Park and are working diligently with the community to help spread awareness.

In a collective effort to mitigate crime, they've also extended deployment out of the park, utilizing four area precincts in addition to the Central Park Precinct.

"We're using all resources available in the NYPD to address this. We've increased camera surveillance. We're also utilizing our auxiliaries on weekends to address the condition here in the park," Assistant Chief Ruel Stephenson, Manhattan North's commanding officer, said.

"Rest assured, all potential park-goers should feel safe using the park."

Officials announced an arrest was made early Tuesday, where a Bronx man was charged in an alleged sexually motivated robbery on April 25, reported NBC New York.

Cops also continue to look for three men on scooters who they claim stole two phones from a tourist after showing a handgun with a laser.

The trio is believed to be responsible for at least nine more incidents in northern Queens, while similar thefts have been reported throughout Manhattan North and South.

Park-goers are advised to stay vigilant and to contact the Central Park Precinct for help.
