BRONX - Is even getting a late night burger at a food truck dangerous? Cops are looking for three men who stuck up a man near a food truck in the Bronx. Two other suspects were seen in the getaway vehicle. 

At around 1 am on January 29, a 30-year-old man was standing near a food truck at Cross Bronx Expressway and Webster Avenue when a blue Honda SUV pulled up. Three men got out and walked over to the man. 

Police are searching for these men in connection with an armed robbery near a Bronx food truck.

One of the trio pulled out a gun while the rest ripped jewelry off the victim and rifled through his pockets. They removed $95 in cash. The robbers then piled back into the car where two other accomplices were waiting. 

Cops say the SUV peeled off and headed eastbound on the Cross Bronx Expressway and turned southbound onto Park Avenue.
