Carjacking Outside Sonia Sotomayor Houses

Police are searching for this man in connection with a carjacking across from the Sotomayor Houses.

BRONX - Police are looking for a pair of gunmen who carjacked a man across the street from the Sonia Sotomayor Houses. But a dumb mistake could lead to their eventual arrest.


At around 4 am on December 2, a 32-year-old man was parked in front of 1117 Saint Lawrence Avenue, across the street for the Sotomayor Houses. Cops say the driver had just dropped off a friend at that location when two men walked up to the driver’s window and pulled out guns. The gunmen demanded the man’s wallet and his 2015 Honda Accord. 




The driver exited the vehicle and handed over his wallet to the thieves. They then drove away in the Honda. The driver was not injured. 


Police recovered the stolen car in Yonkers later that same day.  



However, the crooks did not make a clean getaway. Cops obtained an image of one of the suspects when he tried to use the stolen credit card inside a Yonkers gas station two days later.


Anyone with information in regard to this incident is asked to call the NYPD's Crime Stoppers Hotline at 1-800-577-TIPS (8477) or for Spanish, 1-888-57-PISTA (74782). The public can also submit their tips by logging onto the CrimeStoppers website at https://crimestoppers.nypdonline.org/

or on Twitter @NYPDTips. 


All calls are strictly confidential.
