Clinton Hill Robbery: 4 Wanted For Stealing Tech And Cash Worth Thousands

CLINTON HILL, BROOKLYN — Police are looking for four people they say were involved in a violent robbery overnight in Clinton Hill.

According to police, at around 2 a.m., one of the suspects offered to help two 28-year-old men into their apartment on Gates and Clinton avenues because one of the victims was carrying the other. The four suspects helped the two men into their apartment, and while they were inside, one of them took the victims' house keys, cops said. The suspects left the apartment.

Two suspects returned to the apartment at 3:30 a.m., woke up one of the victims, blindfolded him and put a knife to his neck, police said. The two suspects forced him to give them his debit card PIN number, and one of the suspects left the apartment to withdraw money from an ATM at the 909 Fulton Deli and Grocery, according to the NYPD. That suspect returned to the apartment, and both of the suspects then ransacked the apartment and stole a television, three cell phones, two laptops, an iPad, three credit cards and around $400 in cash, cops said.

The first suspect is described as a black woman, 18 to 22 years old. She was last seen wearing a light jacket, light scarf and dark pants.
