T-Mobile Phones Pulled Off Displays; Great Neck Worker Thrown

GREAT NECK, NY — Police are searching for a luxury SUV after they said two people attacked a T-Mobile store worker who tried to stop one of them from pulling phones off their displays.

Two males entered the store on Great Neck Road around 1:15 p.m. Friday and began browsing phones. When the duo started pulling phones off their displays, a 24-year-old sales representative tried to stop one of the culprits, police said. The woman was thrown to the floor and the males ran off on foot. No one was hurt.

Investigators later determined the duo fled in a white BMW X5, ranging in years from 2013 to 201. They were last seen heading north on Nassau Road, near the intersection of Northern Boulevard.

The suspects were described as black males who were between 17 and 25 years old. They both stood about 5-feet-10 inches tall and had thin builds, police said. The males were also wearing black sweatpants, black hooded sweatshirts and blue masks.

Anyone with information should call Nassau County Crime Stoppers at 1-800-244-TIPS or call investigators at 1-516-573-6753. All callers will remain anonymous.
