According to police, a man has been mugging elderly people in broad daylight. WABC 7 reports that all muggings took place in Manhattan: "In each incident the suspect grabs the victims and forcefully removes their wallets. The suspect then flees the location on foot. Minor injuries have been sustained in each of the incidents." The first was on May 25, when a 77-year-old man was attacked in the lobby of 447 East 14th. Four days later, a 91-year-old man was mugged at 1:40 p.m. in the elevator at 247 West 12th Street. And this past sunday, a 62-year-old was robbed in the lobby of 440 East 23rd Street at 3:10 p.m. WABC 7 says, "The suspect is described as a man in his 40s, bald, 5'5"-5'8" tall, and 200 pounds." Police are asking anyone with information to call CrimeStoppers 800-577-TIPS, to visit the CrimeStoppers website or to text info to 274637(CRIMES) then enter TIP577.

...side by side in the elevator mugging me...
Judging from the picture it looks like a dark skinned white male to me. This white on white crime has to stop.
clearly the solution is to hire the best person to patrol the area in question:

Douches who prey on the elderly should get kicked in the crotch over and over.

i'm sick of the dark color photos/vids its so hard to tell how they look like.
Everyone is so politically correct today that certain parts of a description are deleted to protect certain targeted groups. The description stands at,""The suspect is described as a man in his 40s, bald, 5'5"-5'8" tall, and 200 pounds."
The photo is blurred to protect the image of the alleged perp. It appears he is either a dark skinned Italian, an Hispanic, or a light skinned Afro American. But then again I might just be looking at his sleeve color and it might be a long sleeved shirt, so all bets are off.
The perp is a person, possible male or female in his/her 20s,30s,40s, 50s or 60s, with or without hair, 3'2"-7'1", weighing 68-475 pounds, with albino to absence-of-light colored skin, possibly wearing clothes.
