Man Ties Up Employees, Robs Brooklyn Company Of $35K, Cops Say

BROOKLYN, NY — A gun-wielding man tied up two employees and robbed a Brooklyn media company of $35,000 late last month, according to police.

The heist unfolded in broad daylight on June 24, when the man came into the Halsey Street company around 11:30 a.m. and pointed a gun at two employees, police said.

He then forced the workers to put their hands behind their backs, tying them with zip ties, according to police.

The man fled in a red Jeep Wrangler with a cellphone and around $35,000, police said.

The 1355 Halsey St. location is home to a media company called GrafX, according to Google Maps.
