The NYPD has released a gripping video showing a robber brandishing a blue handgun and pointing it at the back of a diner’s head. The incident took place at Seafood King Fish Market, located at Broadway and West 163rd Street.
The investigators revealed that the robber had visited the restaurant prior to the incident. The victim received treatment at Metropolitan Hospital.
The sequence of tragic events unfolded in the early hours of December 6th. A masked man, dressed in black, entered the Seafood King Fish Market and placed a food order. Shortly after, he left the premises. Approximately ten minutes later, the same individual returned and made use of the restaurant’s bathroom. It was during this time that the victim was seated at the counter, enjoying a meal.
Shortly after, the man in black emerged from the bathroom brandishing a blue handgun. He forcefully demanded cash from the register, as well as the cell phones of both the victim and the worker. Complying with his demands, the employee handed over the contents of the register, which the gunman promptly stashed in a bag. Simultaneously, the cashier and the patron surrendered their cell phones.
The shooter quickly exited the restaurant and escaped on foot, his whereabouts unknown.
