BRONX - A man looking to buy a laptop on the street was given a shock when the woman looking to sell him the computer pulled out a gun and robbed him, cops said.


The NYPD released surveillance video of three suspects wanted in the armed robbery in the South Bronx.


At around 2:30 on March 6, a 35-year-old man drove to Westchester Avenue and Cauldwell Avenue to meet a woman he had contacted to buy a laptop. The woman who was wearing a ski mask entered the victim’s car claiming she was going to sell him the laptop.


Instead, cops said the woman pulled out a gun as two men with guns entered the backseat of the car.


The gunmen took the victim’s cellphone as well as $2,150 in cash. 


The crew then hopped out of the car and ran away.


Unfortunately for the crooks, their victim had recovered them on cameras in the car.


The first suspect is described as a female with a medium complexion who is 5 foot 7 and 120 to 130 pounds. She was last seen wearing an orange sweater, blue vest, and a dark colored mask.


The second suspect is a male with a light complexion who is 5 foot 7 and is 160 to 180 pounds. He was last seen wearing a black jacket and a blue mask.


The third suspect is a male with a medium complexion and thin build. He is 5 foot 7 and 130 and 140 pounds. He was last seen wearing a black hooded sweatshirt, a black face mask, and a silver and black jacket.
