On May 19 at the Clinton-Washington Avenues station in Brooklyn, two people allegedly approached a 35-year-old man on the Fulton Street platform, displayed a firearm, struck him multiple times in the head, took his cellphone, and ran east on Fulton Street. NYPD Crime Stoppers posted a May 29 bulletin with still images and a case summary, requesting video or eyewitness information. Detectives urged riders and nearby businesses to preserve phone, door-cam, and building surveillance footage and warned the public not to approach the suspects. Prosecutors could seek first-degree robbery charges under N.Y. Penal Law §160.15 if a firearm was displayed or a dangerous instrument was used. Tips can be submitted via English hotline 1-800-577-TIPS (8477), Spanish line 1-888-57-PISTA (74782), or the NYPD Crime Stoppers online portal, with potential reward eligibility.
