Man Attempts to Rob Teenager at Gunpoint on 7 Train: NYPD

Dec. 7, 2021 By Christian Murray

The police are looking for a man who tried to rob a teenager at gunpoint while on board a 7 train in Queens last Wednesday.

The suspect approached a 19-year-old straphanger at around 10:35 p.m. while onboard a Manhattan-bound 7 train and then demanded his phone. The thief then punched the teen multiple times in the face before displaying a firearm.

The alleged perpetrator fled the train with nothing when it entered the Willets Point subway station. The teenager declined medical attention.

Police have released video of the suspect that was taken in the vicinity of the incident.

Anyone with information in regard to this incident is asked to call the NYPD’s Crime Stoppers Hotline at 1-800-577-TIPS (8477) or for Spanish, 1-888-57-PISTA (74782).

Tiffany Caban will want the teenage victim to sit down with the suspect and have a chat on why he did what he did…and then let him go free. Thanks leftists.

Once again. This is NYC as DeBlasio has created during his 2 terms. When will the citizens of NYC understand the implications of emptying the jails, decriminalizing everything but murder and preventing the police from doing their jobs.

Yeah John, you’ll be a hero. Nobody has ever died with a gun in his hand. Exercising a little discretion, awareness and just taking basic safety measures has proven to do more to protect people from crime than a concealed gun. Just ask law enforcement, insurance companies and security firms.
