"Police say the incidents happened over several days in Queens, Brooklyn, Manhattan and the Bronx. In each case, investigators say Torres walked into a business and handed a note demanding money. Two of those incidents happened in Brooklyn on March 14. Police say he first went into a location on Fulton Street in downtown Brooklyn around 11:20 a.m., but did not get any money."
"Less than an hour later, investigators say he went to a bank on Nostrand Avenue in Flatbush, where he got away with about $265. Police say Torres is also linked to four other incidents across the city. In some cases, he got cash - including as little as $20 - and in others, he left empty-handed."
Police are searching for 33-year-old Gustavo DeJesus Torres, who is linked to multiple robberies across New York City spanning Queens, Brooklyn, Manhattan, and the Bronx. In each incident, Torres allegedly entered businesses and handed notes demanding money. Two robberies occurred in Brooklyn on March 14: one at a Fulton Street location where he obtained no money, and another at a Nostrand Avenue bank where he stole approximately $265. Torres is connected to four additional incidents citywide, obtaining varying amounts of cash ranging from $20 to larger sums, with some attempts yielding nothing. No injuries occurred during any robberies. Surveillance footage shows Torres inside locations and entering a subway station. The public is encouraged to contact Crime Stoppers with information.
