The police are searching for a man who entered into the Citibank ATM vestibule Monday and demand the victim provide him cash.

The 32-year victim was withdrawing money at the ATM at 1 Court Square at about 4:15 am when a man– holding a pink stocking with a brick inside it—-demanded cash.

The victim refused to hand over money and the suspect swung the stocking with brick inside at the victim striking him in the head. The suspect fled without any proceeds. The victim refused medical attention.

The police described the suspect as a male, white-Hispanic, approximately 5’ ”8” and 230bls.

Anyone with information is asked to call Crime stoppers at 1-800-577-TIPS (8477).

Was he holding a “pink stocking with a brick inside it” or was he holding a brick with a pink stocking around it?

If you get cleaned out at Show Palace

Maybe wait until the sun comes back up before withdrawing money?

Definitely wait for the sun to come back up before withdrawing money. Or find a drug dealer that takes debit. I dunno.

Not Mohawk- just someone who likes to leave anonymous veiled racist comments on news stories.
In Latino communities what is considered ‘white’ is far more variable then our black/white dichotomy in the USA and police reports reflect that.
DNA-wise very few of us are ‘white.’
