Manhattan<\/a> detectives need the public\u2019s help in finding a terrible trio that violently robbed a trendy nightclub last month.\n<\/p>\n

The NYPD released on Tuesday morning images of the three suspects sought for the gunpoint robbery at the Obvio cocktail bar<\/a> located at 3 East 28th St. in Nomad at about 4 a.m. on July 13.<\/p>\n

Law enforcement sources said that three suspects invaded the location about five hours after closing time and confronted two male workers, ages 38 and 43. One of the perpetrators displayed a black pistol with an extended magazine.\u00a0<\/p>\n

According to police, the three crooks forced the workers to enter separate bathrooms. The workers then had their hands bound with electrical cords and tape.\u00a0\n<\/p>\n

After tying up the pair of employees, cops said, the perpetrators removed a safe containing $7,000 in cash, along with numerous bottles of liquor valued at about $7,000, and DJ equipment worth an estimated $13,000. They then fled the scene in an unknown direction.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The incident was reported to the 13th Precinct<\/a>. Police said both victims suffered redness to their wrists, but refused medical attention.\n<\/p>\n

So far, no arrests have been made in the active and ongoing investigation.\n<\/p>\n

In several of the images police provided, the robbers were shown wearing black masks and all-black clothing. One of the suspects, however, was caught on camera walking on the street nearby without a mask, but wearing black clothing and carrying a black backpack.<\/p>\n

Anyone with information regarding the suspects\u2019 whereabouts can call Crime Stoppers at 800-577-TIPS (for Spanish, dial 888-57-PISTA). You can also submit tips online at crimestoppers.nypdonline.org, or on X (formerly Twitter) @NYPDTips. All calls and messages are kept confidential.<\/p>\n

The July 13 incident was one of 83 robberies reported year-to-date in the 13th Precinct<\/a>. That represents a 21% decrease from the 105 robberies tallied at the same point in 2025.<\/p>\n
