"Migrant Moped Gangs: NYPD Cracks Down on Wave of Robberies"

Surveillance video captured two men on a scooter dragging a woman by her purse down a New York City sidewalk before crashing into a pole and fleeing. The incident is part of a larger trend of scooter-involved muggings in the city, with 62 similar robberies attributed to a Venezuelan crime ring. Two men have been arrested in connection with the crime, which is linked to an organized migrant crime gang. The suspects are accused of stealing phones and purses, hacking into banking apps, and reselling stolen phones overseas. The alleged ringleader remains at large, and police are actively seeking him.
