Gun-waving brute pummels elderly woman during NYC robbery - then scurries away: cops
"The robber snatched the unsuspecting woman's phone while shoving her to the ground inside the JC Tires Shop near Rockaway Parkway and Avenue N around 8:40 am in Canarsie, according to the NYPD. The stranger then repeatedly kicked her and whipped out a firearm, aiming it at the woman while verbally threatening her. Her attacker - last seen wearing a green jacket, camouflage-colored pants, black hat and black facemask hanging off his chin - then took off, traveling southbound on Rockaway Parkway."
"Saturday's robbery came days after career criminal Jamel McGriff allegedly killed and burned an elderly couple inside their Queens home. "I'll admit it. I killed them," he told police after his arrest, according to prosecutors. "I don't give a f-k. I killed them. I burnt the n-as. I molested them," he chillingly confessed. Last month, Servin Maradiaga, 43, allegedly sexually abused a sleeping 71-year-old woman inside her Brooklyn home on Aug. 30."
