(Scroll down for video) Police are looking to arrest and charge three people with robbery after they were seen on video robbing a man in the Borough Park area of Brooklyn, New York.
Brooklyn Police also said that the three men are suspected of committing a dozen robberies across Brooklyn, and have released video surveillance of men, who approached a victim, 28, in one of the robberies.
The 11 thefts have happened in the Bensonhurst, Borough Park, Windsor Terrace and Sunset Park neighborhoods, in October and November. The victims were all male, aged between 23 and 57, police said.
The three men approached their victims in the street, threatened and attacked them before fleeing with their personal property.
A surveillance video shows one suspect approaching the victim on the street, and cornering him against a closed shop.
The other two suspects, wearing baseball caps and bandanas over their faces, quickly surround the victim and demand the victim's property. The victim complied, and the thieves fled from the scene.
