BRONX - Cops are looking for a pair of crooks who were caught on camera riding a moped with a food delivery bag. The NYPD said the pair used the moped to snatch a cell phone out of a woman’s hand in Morris Park.
At around 8:30 am on January 26, a 59-year-old woman was standing on the sidewalk in front of a laundromat at 1604 Williamsbridge Road.
