Based on the t-shirt of one of the males it looks like those public school end of year graduating t-shirt with names of people on the back. I could be wrong, but that’s what it looks like. Maybe that can be a lead.
This is the clearest crime video I’ve seen. Without a doubt the NYPD can get some clear photos from this one. Usually they’re very grainy. Hope the perps’ mothers see their boys beating this young woman.
There were a number of places where both suspects left fingerprints.
I’m glad you posted this video ywn, that woman looked really dangerous. It’s good those two fellas took action to apprehend her but I guess they were scared and ran off.
Good news though, I do have some limited forensic abilities and from the video I was able to put some pieces together. It looked like she probably lived in that building or was visiting someone in that building. If they notify the security guard or have someone waiting there she shouldn’t be too hard to get because I think she’ll probably return there very shortly.
Yandex what in the world are you trying to say??? Or can someone else please explain it to me
20-25???? They look more like 15-18. Maybe the nypd has to say 20 so they can make the video public and not have an issue with them being minors.
