The police released photos Monday of three suspects who allegedly beat up and robbed a man in Astoria last month.

The group, according to police, attacked a 58-year-old man in the vicinity of Astoria Boulevard and 22nd Street on Oct. 3 at around 12:30 a.m.

The suspects punched and kicked the victim in the face before taking his cellphone from his pants pocket, police said. They then fled the scene with the phone in an unknown direction.

The victim was transferred to Cornell Hospital with a broken nose along with swelling and bruising to his face.

The photos were taken from the location of the attack.

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

If the picture is of the suspect, then somebody knows who it is and he’s probably here illegally. If it’s the victim, I hope he’s okay!

Legal or illegal does not matter anymore.
The US could attract the best engineers who would create the best delivery-robots on earth. Instead we have praised delivery riders who don’t obey the traffic rules, ride on the sidewalks, get killed on the job.

Twenty people indicted in Queens-based $4.6M vehicle theft ring after three-year probe: DA

Twenty individuals were indicted and variously charged in a wide-ranging scheme to steal cars in Queens, throughout New York City and its suburbs, following a three-year investigation by the Queens District Attorney’s Office, the NYPD, and the New York State Police dubbed “Operation Hellcat,” into the criminal enterprise based in Queens.

Some of the vehicles were stolen from owners’ driveways, some with the keys or key fobs inside.
