The NYPD is asking for the public's help identifying three people wanted in connection with a citywide robbery pattern tied to incidents within Manhattan's 34th Precinct and the 41st Precinct in the South Bronx. Investigators say a reward of up to $3,500 is available for information leading to an arrest and indictment in the case.
The appeal came Sunday night in a post from NYPD Crime Stoppers
, which said the department was seeking to identify three individuals depicted in media attached to the post. Anyone with information is asked to contact Crime Stoppers by sending a direct message to @nypdtips or by calling 1-800-577-TIPS (8477).
A 2025 Robbery Pattern
Earlier robbery patterns have also cropped up around the city in recent years. One such pattern, reported by the Norwood News in 2025, involved 29 robbery incidents between April 27 and June 2 of that year across multiple Bronx and Manhattan precincts, including the 34th. In that pattern, police said suspects approached victims on gas-motorized scooters, displayed either a gun or a knife, and stole jewelry, cell phones, and other property before fleeing on the scooters, with some victims sustaining minor injuries.
Police in that 2025 case described the suspects as male and said they were last seen riding red-and-black and green-and-black gas-motorized scooters, according to the Norwood News report. The pattern involved incidents across nine Bronx precincts and Manhattan's 33rd and 34th precincts.
A Separate 2026 Pattern Also Targeted Jewelry
A different robbery pattern surfaced earlier this year when the NYPD sought two individuals for questioning in connection with a citywide pattern involving the theft of jewelry and personal property, as reported by SILive. That case tallied 15 reported incidents between May 28 and July 16, 2026, and involved two unidentified individuals riding a bicycle or moped who forcibly removed jewelry and other belongings from victims. Five victims in that earlier pattern suffered minor injuries to their necks, and the surveillance images police circulated were drawn from incidents investigated by the 42nd and 48th precincts.
How to Submit a Tip
The NYPD's Crime Stoppers unit, based in New York, is offering the reward for information that leads directly to an arrest and indictment in the case. Residents with any details about the three individuals sought in the 34th and 41st precinct pattern can reach investigators through the contact channels listed in the department's appeal.
