Police Seek Suspects In Q Train Purse Snatching


The NYPD is after two men they say are connected to a late-night purse snatching on a Q train.

Police say that on Friday, August 28 at 2:30am, a 27-year-old woman who had been asleep on the subway woke up near the 7th Avenue stop to find that someone had taken her bag, which had her iPhone and wallet inside.

A little later, at 4:30am, cops say her debit card was used at an ATM in a bodega on Myrtle Avenue.

Surveillance photos of the two suspects who used the card are shown above.

Anyone with information in regards to this grand larceny is asked to call the NYPD’s crime stoppers hotline at 1-800-577-TIPS (8477). You can also submit tips by logging onto the crime stoppers website or by texting tips to 274637 (CRIMES) and then entering TIP577.
