Police from the 115th Precinct are still looking for two suspects who forcibly removed a pricey necklace for a young woman on Northern Boulevard in Jackson Heights nearly a month ago.
Police say the 17-year-old victim was walking past 78-15 Northern Blvd. just before 7 p.m. on Monday, July 20, when the perpetrators rode up behind her on an e-bike. The passenger reached out and snatched her necklace valued at approximately $2,300 as the e-bike operator sped away from the scene northbound on 79th Street toward 32nd Avenue.
The victim was not injured during the encounter.
The NYPD released surveillance images of the suspects without descriptions and a reward of up to $3,500 is being offered for information that leads to their arrest and indictment.
Anyone with information regarding this grand larceny investigation is asked to call the NYPD’s Crime Stoppers Hotline at 800-577-TIPS (8477) or for Spanish, 888-57-PISTA (74782). The public can also submit their tips by logging on to the Crime Stoppers website at crimestoppers.nypdonline.org or on X (the platform formerly known as Twitter) @NYPDTips. All calls and messages are strictly confidential.
