ASTORIA — Police are looking for four suspects who pulled a gun on a man on a Queens street earlier this month, taking the victim's jewelry and his cell phone before driving off.

The suspects got out of a gray Nissan Altima roughly 6 a.m. on Sept. 6 on 34th Street between 36th and 37th avenues, according to the NYPD.

The group approached a 30-year-old man, and one of the suspects pulled out a gun and demanded the victim turn over his property. The thieves took the man's jewelry and iPhone before getting back in the car and taking off.

The suspects were caught on surveillance video pushing the man down the sidewalk.

Anyone with information is asked to call the NYPD's Crime Stoppers Hotline at 800-577-TIPS.
