SUNSET PARK– Cops are on the hunt for three suspects wanted for attacking and robbing a 53-year-old man at gunpoint in Sunset Park.
According to authorities, on May 3 at around 1:35 p.m., the trio approached the victim at 39th Street and Sixth Avenue. Previously, one of the suspects had gotten out of a minivan on 40th Street between Fifth and Sixth Avenues, while the other two arrived on the scene in a Nissan Maxima.
One of the suspects held a gun to the victim, while another punched him in the head, knocking him to the floor.
