New York City woman fights off pair of moped-riding robbers: police
Attempted robbery in Manhattan’s Upper East Side caught on video
By Greg Norman
A New York City woman has been caught on video fighting off a pair of suspects who police say tried to rob her while riding on a moped.The incident happened in broad daylight Saturday in Manhattan’s Upper East Side neighborhood near the Guggenheim Museum.
Police told Fox News Digital that two 28-year-old women were walking along the sidewalk around 12:15 p.m. when they were approached by the unidentified suspects.
“The operator of the moped attempted to forcibly remove the victim’s necklace from around her neck and a brief struggle ensued,” police said. “The passenger of the moped then dismounted and attempted to remove the necklace from the victim, but she resisted and he was unsuccessful.”
Surveillance footage showed the victim – who was knocked to the ground – kicking at the suspect who was trying to get close to her.
The victim sustained minor injuries and refused medical treatment.

Then less than an hour later in another part of Manhattan, two suspects on a dirt bike and another on a moped swiped a 64-year-old victim’s Rolex watch as he was walking on a sidewalk, Fox5 NY reports.

Seems there was a spate of moped bandits in Brazil. They really don’t like moped bandits there. Caution- graphic violence, and the finale is worth the price of admission.

Very rarely do firearms restrictions affect criminals. They really only affect law-abiding citizens.

Looks like a short, brutish and hard life for motor bike thieves. Maybe better not to go down that path in life.
DeSantis is ever so promising. I wonder how he feels about a federal law requiring all states and territories to honor reciprocity with all other states and territories in matters of firearms, ammunition and method of carry.
There was a bill about state recprcocity that was supposed to be introduced in congress but I believe two big Rhino republicans failed to submit the bill.Anyone hear the same as I did????
Dat’s some good video. It should be titled Brazilian Whacks.
Hack Stone, does Rosetta Stone know you’ve been watching Brazillian Wax Videos?
Another family affair.
BZ Ms Thang. Needs to be open season on feral pavement punks. Imagine, if you will, had it been 2 white punks trying to rob a POC? The Hue & cry.
Iffen I had a spare 8 large laying around, I might would want me a coupla them FNs. In each caliber.
