PROSPECT-LEFFERTS GARDENS — A 35-year-old man walking on Lincoln Road last week was robbed at knifepoint by a group of men who attacked him during the morning commute on the busy street.
The man was walking on the south side of Lincoln Road between Ocean and Flatbush avenues in Prospect-Lefferts Gardens roughly 8:30 a.m. on Oct. 14 when three men approached him. One in the group put a knife to the man’s chest and demanded, “give me your wallet or I’m going to poke your sh-t,” he told police.
The 35-year-old gave the men his wallet, which contained $40 in cash, his social security card and New York State I.D.
The three men fled on foot, police said. No suspects have been identified and no arrests have been made.
