A man who was leaving a laundromat in Queens was blindsided and pushed to the ground by two men who stole his watch and cash, the NYPD says.
On Wednesday at around 2 p.m., two men with their hoods up walked up to the man as he was walking out of the laundromat in St. Albans, police said.
They both dragged the 62-year-old man to the ground and punched him in the face, authorities said.
The pair took the man’s watch and $500 in cash before running away.
The victim suffered a black eye, officials said.
Police said both suspects are in their 20s.
Video from the scene shows the two men jump the man who was carrying bags in both hands.
