The man on the back attempts to remove the necklace from Valeria’s neck but it won’t come off. The robbery is carried out in broad daylight and the girl is dragged 10 ft.
It happened quickly. “I didn’t feel the drag,” Valeria said to reporters Monday, Fox New York reported. “I did not feel the drag. “I only cared about my necklace.”
The suspect then jumps off the ebike and grabs the jewelry from her while she’s lying on the ground. The men fled immediately. Valeria stated that the necklace was a religious item with sentimental value.
Valeria’s mother said to the news outlet that Valeria is afraid of leaving her daughter home on her own.
According to police, these two men are wanted for their involvement in seven New York City robberies. (NYPD)
