Police from the 103rd Precinct in Jamaica are still looking for two men who allegedly robbed a Caribbean restaurant at gunpoint in broad daylight more than a month ago.
The masked-up suspects entered Pepe Food Bites at 106-13 Guy R. Brewer Blvd. at 3 p.m. on Thursday, Feb. 26. One of the men pulled out a firearm and threatened a 29-year-old male victim behind the counter, who complied, removing approximately $1,500 from an office drawer and handing it over. The suspects fled the restaurant and were last seen running northbound on Guy R, Brewer Boulevard toward Tuskegee Airmen Way. The perpetrators entered a gray Toyota Highlander and sped away from the scene in an unknown direction. There were no injuries reported after the armed robbery.
The NYPD released surveillance images of the suspects and described them as having dark complexions. One wore a black jacket over a black hooded sweatshirt, with black pants, black sneakers, a black hat, a black ski mask and black-rimmed eyeglasses. His accomplice wore a distinctive black hoodie with a white design containing the Jay Z lyric “I’ve got 99 problems,” black pants, black sneakers a black hat and a black ski mask.
A reward of up to $3,500 is being offered for information that leads to their arrest and indictment.
