Police released images Thursday of a suspect wanted for robbing two men at gunpoint outside a luxury apartment building on Center Boulevard in June.

The robbery took place on June 22 at around 1 p.m. when a gun-toting man approached the victims — aged 25 and 33 — outside 45-45 Center Blvd., a TF Cornerstone building located on the Long Island City waterfront.

The suspect demanded the victims’ property and then took cellphones, cash, and wallets, police said. The perpetrator then fled the scene on foot toward Anable Basin, police said.

The 33-year-old suffered a scratch on his left shoulder while the 25-year-old was unharmed, police said.

Police released two photos of the man wanted for questioning. He was last seen wearing a green-colored top, fawn pants, a baseball cap and a backpack.

The 108th Precinct tweeted that the suspect should be considered armed and dangerous.

Crome up 40% in LIC area. 108 pct. say they are stretched thin. They need more cops. Many precincts say that. Temembet Mayor Adams never restored full billion dpllars FeBlasio defunded.
He took cops off desk duty and used them. Replaced them with civilian hites. The NYV.Council and Albany Legislatite all full of Democratic Socialists want rhe NO BAIL LAWS TO STAY. The DA’ s like Alvin Bragg And Eric Gonzalez and Daecel Clarke also who do not do their jobs. Thanks Kathy Hochul ypu are clueless ro what is actually gping on..

Can Queens’ food scene thrive with both trucks and restaurants?

In Jackson Heights at 4 p.m. on a Thursday afternoon, Roosevelt Avenue is buzzing with energy as commuters file in and out of subway cars and onto the street and cars and trucks grapple to get down the busy road. The street is filled with rows of shops and restaurants, along with food carts, street vendors and food trucks along the avenue.
