The NYPD is searching for four individuals wanted in connection with a robbery in Boro Park last week, on November 7, during which a teenager had his necklace stolen and another man was assaulted.

The incident occurred at approximately 5:55 p.m. near Fort Hamilton Parkway and New Utrecht Avenue, when four individuals approached three males, ages 15, 17, and 33, and began arguing with them.

During the confrontation, one suspect forcibly stole a necklace from the 17-year-old, while another displayed a machete knife. The remaining two suspects punched and kicked the 33-year-old man, leaving him with a cut near his eye and knee pain.

The suspects fled the scene on foot. The 33-year-old sustained minor injuries but did not want to seek medical attention.

Police have released images of the four suspects and are asking the public for assistance in identifying them.

Anyone with information is asked to contact the NYPD Crime Stoppers Hotline at 1-800-577-TIPS (8477). All tips are confidential.
