-
While in the 3rd floor hallway of a West 134th Street building, the deponent was approached by the defendants and another unidentified man, who told him to “keep quiet” while they searched his pockets – stealing $17 in cash in the process. The men then told the deponent to go upstairs where, through the window of an apartment, he witnessed the defendants fleeing into a building on Eighth Avenue, where they were subsequently found by police and arrested.
