Expensive headphones are being stolen right off people's heads in Manhattan, and police say it's the work of moped-riding thieves who have struck more than 20 times in the past month. DaveCarlinTV reports.
Four moped-riding suspects are being hunted by police, who said they usually strike during mid-afternoon.One woman named Maria, who asked CBS2 not share her name, had her headphones and a bracelet stolen in a similar way about a year ago.
"It was so crazy. I felt hunted," Maria said."One was in the front and one was right next to me, and I guess if I didn't let it go they were gonna do something, so I just ran." CBS2 asked the owners of expensive headphones what, if anything, they do to stay safe when wearing them. "I don't wear mine out. I use them for like work and for stuff and indoors," a woman named Bella said.
"Personally, I would keep taking the chance and I'm comfortable walking the streets most nights," SoHo resident Kieran Garvey added.CBS2 asked top leaders at NYPD what was being done about an increase in incidents where scooters and mopeds have been used to carry out crimes and make fast getaways"We have our ears to the radios city-wide to determine the route in which these individuals are going to and from the incident," Chief of Transportation Kim Royster said.
