Cops Release Video Of Suspects In Warbasse Houses Armed Robbery
The NYPD has released video of the three suspects who robbed a 67-year-old woman at gunpoint in an elevator of the Amalgamated Warbasse Houses in Coney Island.
As we first reported last week, three suspects followed the woman into the elevator of 425 Neptune Avenue at 8pm on September 22. The doors closed and the suspects flashed a gun and demanded money. She handed over her handbag, which had an LG cellphone and $20.
Cops have released the surveillance video turned over by the building’s security, showing the three suspects enter the building, and then board the elevator.
Neighbors at Warbasse say that a second robbery, at knifepoint, occurred in another Warbasse building this Monday. We’re still working to confirm the details of that incident.
