BRONX - Cops are looking for a group of robbers who stole a delivery man’s moped and tried to steal another dog owner’s pooch during a string of robberies in the Bronx.




The NYPD released surveillance photos of one of the gunmen dressed all in black and the gray sedan used as a getaway car.









Van Driver Killed Crashing into Back of Tractor Trailer on Cross Bronx Expressway 



At around 10:30 am on October 2, a 33-year-old man was walking his dog near a school. In the vicinity of East 229 Street and Carpenter Avenue two men dressed in black clothing and black ski masks approached him. One of the men pulled out a gun and demanded the dog.


The owner ran with the dog and fled to safety.


The robbers jumped into the gray sedan and took off. Cops say a third member of the crew drove the getaway car.




The next day at around 12:45 am the two robbers approached a food delivery man. The sedan pulled up in front of 3973 Bronxwood Avenue and two robbers got out and displayed handguns to the 32-year-old delivery man.


They demanded the man’s moped and proceeded to punch the victim in the face. They grabbed the victim’s cellphone. One of the men jumped on the moped while the other hopped back into the sedan. The gunman drove the stolen moped behind the sedan and drove  away.


During an investigation police discovered these two robberies are linked to an earlier armed robbery in front of a storefront church on Bronxwood Avenue.


At around 9:30 pm on September 22, two men in black and wearing ski masks exited a gray sedan and approached a 21-year-old man with guns drawn. They stole the victim’s bag and fled.
