When Nick DiCostanzo was growing up on the Island of Ischia on the Coast of Naples in Italy, his earliest memories where of the simple seaside meals he would enjoy with his family, farm-to-table and of course sea-to-table. As proprietor of Mamma Francesca in New Rochelle for nearly 40 years, located on the banks of Long Island Sound with 6-story views of the ‘Queen City’s’ seafaring boat clubs, this culinary philosophy still holds true.

BRONX - Cops are looking for a robbery crew that is so high end that their getaway car is a $60,000 plus Range Rover. Investigators are looking for the muggers who robbed victims in Manhattan of Rolex and Cartier watches as well as other high-end fashion items valued at tens of thousands of dollars.  


Cops are looking for a three-man robbery crew that struck throughout upper Manhattan and Riverdale mostly in one night. Investigators say the crew made off with nearly $90,000 worth of items during four robberies over four hours in one night. 


The crooks kicked off the crime spree at midnight on October 24 in upper Manhattan. A 32-year-old man and a 27-year-old man were standing in front of 401 West 202 Street when they were approached by the trio. One of the crew pulled a gun on the victims while the other two removed items such as gold chains valued at $8,000, a $6,500 bracelet and $1,500 in cash. The robbers then piled into a dark colored Range Rover SUV and drove off. 





Three hours later the crew struck again in Riverdale. At 3 am, a 49-year-old man was standing in front of 3648 Bailey Avenue when he was approached by the trio. Again one of the crew held a gun on him while the others stripped him of his items. They took a $2,700 Rolex watch, a $1,000 designer wallet and $8,900 in cash. The perps drove off in the Range Rover to their next victim. 


At around 3:50 am, a couple was standing on the corner of 10 Avenue and West 202 Street in Manhattan. The gunman ordered the 34-year-old man and 25-year-old woman to drop their property to the ground. The other crew members picked up the $22,000 Cartier watch, a $4,000 ring and a $20,000 bracelet. They then took off in the Range Rover.  





The final robbery of the night happened at 4:30 am. In front of 4162 Broadway the crew robbed a 42-year-old man of his $4,600 ring, a $6,000 chain and an $1,800 designer jacket. They also made off with $2,000 in cash.
