Debo from Friday is real. NYPD is on the hunt for a man on a bicycle that has been accused of at least eleven larcenies that include the theft of iPhones right out of the hands of his victims in Manhattan. Did we mention the bike sometimes had a basket?
Reports the New York Post:
A crook is targeting women across Manhattan by swooping in on a rented Citi Bike and snatching their pocketbooks and iPhones, cops say.
Police have tied the pedal-pushing punk, who has been spotted on both a Citi Bike and an regular bicycle with a basket mounted on the front, to 11 ride-by muggings since early February.
He first struck at around 11:30 p.m. on Feb. 2, when he rode up beside a 32-year-old woman walking along Sixth Avenue and ripped an iPhone from her hand, cops said.
The thief last surfaced on April 29, when he stole a 42-year-old woman’s pocketbook on East 17th Street near Third Avenue at around 10:30 p.m., police said.
No word on if the thief’s bike squeaks like Debo’s, too.
Watch the surveillance footage that NYPD released below. Do the right thing and submit any info you may have on this menace to NYPD’s Crime Stoppers Hotline at 800-577-TIPS or at WWW.NYPDCRIMESTOPPERS.COM.
