纽约摩托抢匪专抢金项链 警方：9月以来已发生20多起
位于纽约州的纽约市，据《纽约邮报》10月18日报道，纽约市近期出现多起骑摩托车或电动自行车的抢匪专门抢夺路人脖子上的金项链，其中至少10起演变为暴力抢劫。纽约市警察局（NYPD）证实，自9月以来已发生20多起此类"飞车抢项链"案件。
报道称，作案者通常两人一车，趁行人不备从身后扯下项链后迅速逃离。9月25日，一名48岁男子在布朗克斯西145街遭一名蒙面摩托车手抢走项链。一名不愿具名的执法人员向《邮报》表示，部分案件与帮派"Trinitarios"有关，该帮派长期在布朗克斯和上曼哈顿活动。
最严重的一起案件发生在本月初：一名纽约市警探在试图阻止两名抢匪时被刺10刀。另有9名受害者报告在抢劫中被殴打、刺伤或推倒在地。警方提醒市民在街头注意佩戴贵重首饰的安全，相关调查仍在进行中。
NYC Moped Crews Snatching Gold Chains; Police Count More Than 20 Cases Since September
New York City is located in New York State. The New York Post reported on Oct. 18 that New York City has seen a string of robberies in which riders on mopeds or e-bikes snatch gold chains from pedestrians' necks, with at least 10 escalating into violent robberies. The NYPD confirmed more than 20 such "chain-snatch" cases since September.
The crews typically work in pairs, pulling up behind a pedestrian, tearing off the chain and speeding away. On Sept. 25, a 48-year-old man on West 145th Street in the Bronx had his chain ripped off by a masked moped rider. An unnamed law-enforcement source told the Post that some cases are linked to the Trinitarios gang, long active in the Bronx and Upper Manhattan.
The most serious case came earlier this month: an NYPD detective was stabbed 10 times while trying to stop two robbers. Nine other victims reported being beaten, stabbed or knocked to the ground during robberies. Police urge residents to stay alert when wearing valuable jewelry on the street; the investigation is ongoing.
