SHEEPSHEAD BAY – Another assault and robbery of an elderly Brooklynite in Sheepshead Bay took place last week, [related to a similar incident ](/four-teens-assault-rob-elderly-victim-in-sheepshead-bay/)at the end of last month. This time however, there were arrests.

Just before 7:00pm on Wednesday, October 4, four male teens struck a 65-year old victim from behind in the area of Avenue W and Brigham Street, said police.
