FINANCIAL DISTRICT — A young woman was robbed at gunpoint in a downtown McDonald’s last month, police said.
The 15-year-old victim, a Brooklyn resident, was playing a game on her iPod Touch inside the McDonald’s at 6 Water St. about 4:30 p.m. Oct. 29 when the thief approached her, police said.
The thief asked the victim, "What’s good?" and when she tried to walk away, he blocked her path and pulled a black semi-automatic firearm from his waistband, police said.
"Give it up or I’m going to blow you up," he said, according to police.
He then grabbed the iPod, valued at $135, and fled with another man, police said.
Police are seeking the two men, both described as black, 5-feet-7-inches tall, 150 pounds.
