Man Robbed While Withdrawing Cash at ATM in Flushing: NYPD

(NYPD)

Nov. 18, 2019 By Allie Griffin

A man was robbed while withdrawing cash from an ATM at a Flushing bank last month, police said.

The 34-year-old was inside Chase Bank, located at 40-42 Main St, on Oct. 27 at about 12:20 a.m. when a man approached him at the ATM machine. He simulated a weapon underneath his shirt and demanded money, cops said.

The 34-year-old complied and the man took $50 and fled southbound on Main Street.

Anyone with information in regard to the identity of this male is asked to call the NYPD’s Crime Stoppers Hotline at 1-800-577-TIPS (8477) or for Spanish, 1-888-57-PISTA (74782).

The public can also submit their tips by logging onto the CrimeStoppers website at WWW.NYPDCRIMESTOPPERS.COM, or on Twitter @NYPDTips.

What’s funny is that usually there’s a police tower/car parked right outside of that intersection. Where’s 109th Precinct?!
