A 21-year-old New Rochelle man was robbed of cell phone valued at $200 early Sunday while walking in the area of Division and Prospect streets.
The robbery took place at about 1:20 a.m. when the victim was approached by two black males. One of the suspects is described as wearing green boxer shorts and white sneakers, while the other suspect is described as wearing a purple t-shirt, blue jeans and white sneakers.
The suspect in the blue jeans asked the victim for his cell phone. When the victim refused, the suspect in the jeans brandished a small pocket knife and grabbed the cell phone.
The suspects then fled south on Division Street. The incident remains under investigation.
When will people learn that at night evil predators come out of the trees or fall from the sky. It is not safe to walk around as an open book with your expensive possessions in full view for these predators to rob you. Get some common sense or you'll continue to be victimized. It's really the way the world works unfortunately. I know it's a rude awakening to hear this but someone needs to deliver the bad news especially when people refuse to take precautions and protect themselves :-(
