Delivery Man Robbed in Lakeview

A Chinese food delivery man was robbed shortly after midnight on Friday in Lakeview by three unidentified perpetrators who are still on the loose, police say.

The 27-year-old victim was delivering an order to a home on Clinton Avenue around 12:30 a.m. on June 24, where he was met by an unknown black male subject, according to Nassau County Police.

As the delivery man exited his vehicle, he was approached from behind by two additional unknown male black subjects who allegedly threatened to use a weapon, cops say. They then went through the victim’s pockets, removing an unknown amount of cash, a wallet and cell phone - and they took the food order too. The three man reportedly fled the scene on foot, heading south through a backyard. Police say no injures were reported.

This is the second time in recent months that a delivery person has been robbed in Lakeview. In late March, was attacked and robbed, again just after midnight, while bringing an order to a home on Dekoven Street. In that case, the victim was also approached from behind by two men while bringing the order to a another.
