The NYPD says this is one of the three men who robbed at least nine people in Bensonhurst and Sunset Park, in just under three-and-a-half hours on Oct. 15.




These hoodlums are as efficient as they are fierce. The trio robbed nine people in Borough Park, Bensonhurst and Sunset Park, in just under three-and-a-half hours Tuesday morning.


The NYPD has released a sketch of one of the men cops are hunting after the robbery spree, which hopscotched three neighborhoods in breakneck speed, officials said.


The fearsome threesome — who hit unsuspecting men with a baseball bat before punching and kicking them — approached their first victim on 59th St. near Fort Hamilton Parkway at 2 a.m., robbing the 24-year-old of his wallet, iPhone and $ 100, officials said.

From that point on, it was off to the races for these sinister sluggers, police said.


The men went on to wreak much more havoc during the terror tour:


l They attacked a 44-year-old man on Eighth Ave. and 59th St. in Borough Park at 3 a.m., but didn’t take any property.

l They beat up and robbed a 30-year-old man on Benson Ave., near 24th Ave. in Bath Beach, at 3:20 a.m., taking $ 200 and an iPhone. The victim wound up in Lutheran Medical Center, officials said.


l About 30 minutes later, at around 3:50 a.m., the suspects jumped a 57-year-old man on 63rd St. near Bay Parkway in Bensonhurst, but fled empty-handed when their victim fought back.


That victim was rushed to Lutheran Medical Center with minor injuries, officials said.

l They popped up on 60th St. near 14th Ave. a few moments later, where they robbed a 48-year-old man of a CB radio.


l As 4 a.m. rolled around, police said the suspects approached a 23-year-old man on 20th Ave. near 84th St. in Bensonhurst, attacked him and ran off with the man’s Dr. Dre Beats headphones. The victim was also treated at Lutheran Medical Center, officials said.


l Ten minutes later, the suspects jumped two men, ages 29 and 30, as they walked down 51st St. near Eighth Ave. in Sunset Park. The goons took a jacket off of one victim and an iPhone off the other, police said.


l Police say the spree ended at 5:20 a.m., when they jumped a 33-year-old on Benson Ave. near 23rd Ave., taking $ 300, an iPhone and two-way radio.


None of the victims appeared to be seriously injured, police said.


Cops are asking anyone with information regarding these three thieves to call Crime Stoppers at (800) 577-TIPS. All calls will be kept confidential.
