NYPD Is Investigating Possible Hate Crimes
Police are investigating eight recent muggings of Asian men and women in Brooklyn’s 84th Precinct, authorities said Friday.
The first attack occurred Aug. 14, and the last victim was targeted Nov. 12, police said.
In each case, between one and five teens used intimidation and force to swipe property from their victims, whose ages range from 15 to 52, officials said.
The NYPD’s citywide robbery squad has been called in to aid the investigation, officials said.
The 84th Precinct’s commanding officer plans to continue discussions about the crimes with the area’s Asian-American community, officials said.
Police said the robberies appear to be part of a pattern.
Cops ask anyone with information to call (800) 577-TIPS.
