Weekend Crimes in New York
On Sunday, four suspects remained at large in relation to the alleged September robbery of a 72-year-old New York man who suffered a broken mandible and other injuries. Police describe it as a possible hate crime.
Authorities have not made any arrests since the September 15 incident in Chelsea, Manhattan's West Village, where the victim was strolling alone around 10:15 p.m. near West 17th Street and Ninth Avenue.
Per Yahoo, police said the group of assailants could be heard using anti-gay obscenities before beating the defenseless victim and leaving him with wounds and injuries before fleeing the scene.
The victim was treated for his injuries at the hospital and was anticipated to recover. The New York Police Department revealed the crime for the first time on Sunday, releasing photographs of the suspects in the hopes that the public will assist in identifying them.
The images appear to have been captured by a surveillance camera and depict four adolescent males traveling through what appears to be the building's foyer.
However, a historically turbulent Brooklyn neighborhood in which police have clamped down on quality-of-life infractions has witnessed a significant decrease in crime.
In the past six weeks, no homicides have been reported in the 73rd Precinct of Brownsville.
And no shootings had been reported there during the same time period, police say, until early Friday morning, when two men and a woman were shot in a corner of the Crown Heights precinct, according to NY News Daily.
Police urged anyone with information to contact the NYPD Crime Stoppers tip line at 1-800-577-8477 or submit an online tip. Tips can also be submitted via the @NYPDTips Twitter page.
