Authorities are turning to the public for help in tracking down three thugs believed to be behind 11 robberies over two months in Bensonhurst, Borough Park, Windsor Terrace and Sunset Park.

NBC reports:

The three men approach their victims on the street, threatening or assaulting them before running away with their personal property, police say.
Surveillance video in a Nov. 1 robbery shows a suspect approaching the victim on the street and cornering him against a gated storefront. The two other suspects, wearing baseball caps and scarves over their faces, quickly surround the victim and appear to demand property from the victim. The victim complies, and the robbers run off.

All 11 victims have been men, between the ages of 23 and 57, according to the report.
