BRONX - Cops are looking for a couple that robbed three people at knife point in one day in and around Riverdale. The NYPD said the robbers netted very little from their day-long crime spree. 




At around 6:45 am on April 21, a 53-year-old male was walking near the intersection of West 231 Street and Tibbett Avenue in Kingsbridge. Cops said a woman approached the man asking him for money. When he refused, another man wearing a balaclava came around with a  knife and demanded cash. 



Cops said the crooks got away with only $35. The victim was not injured. 


A few hours later the same couple struck again. At around 10:20 am, a 68-year-old woman was walking near the intersection of Mosholu Avenue and Huxley Avenue in North Riverdale. Cops said the same woman walked up to the retiree and demanded her purse. Then her male partner walked up behind the woman and yanked the purse off her shoulder. The crooks then ran off. 





Cops said the purse contained only $20. 

 

An hour later the same crew struck for the third and final time on April 21. At around 11:45 am, a 79-year-old woman was walking near the intersection of West 233 Street and Broadway in Kingsbridge. 





Cops said this time the male ran up to the victim alone and yanked her purse away. He ran off with the stolen purse to a waiting car and drove off. Cops said the purse contained an Apple iPhone and car keys. 


The NYPD released surveillance video of the suspect. He is described as a male with a light compelxion and medium to thin build. He was last seen wearing a black balaclava and a black Chicago White Sox baseball cap. He also wore a gray hoodie, black jogging pants and black sneakers with red soles. 



No description of the female suspect has been provided.
