Mugging on Sterling — Brooklynian

Mugging on Sterling

Hey, a head's up- at about ten pm last night i was mugged on sterling between Underhill and Butler. It was a group of four teenagers, unarmed, black, one with a baseball cap. Clocked in the temple from behind and then a sort of a half-hearted kicking circle on the ground. No theft or injuries to report, they were looking for cash and cell phone. Be alert, and aware of any footsteps around you.

  • That sucks. Sorry to hear it and glad you sound okay. Please consider reporting it. You were still assaulted and teenagers are doing this a lot in that area. If nothing else, it just keeps the police aware that this continues to happen.
  • plz report it !!
  • Please report it.
    That's awful, I walk down that block often.

    Sorry to hear about that horrible attack!
  • Can you provide more details about the group and their actions? Were they a silent group stalking you from behind, were they loud? Were they in a single group, did they ask for cash and cell phones? You said you were mugged yet you have no theft to report.
  • im sorry to hear that happened to you. something has to be done with these teen gangs. i thought the police dept have a gang unit.
  • How awful! Thank you so much for reporting this information. I live right on the corner of Sterling and Butler Place so this is useful to know. I hope you're okay.
  • dr. octagon...i just sent you a private message with some info that may be helpful in locating your attackers. If you didn't/can't receive it, send me an email at arches (at) yahoo dot com.
  • it seems like this kind of activity has flared up a bit recently. or am i imagining things.
  • and since it is getting warmer its not going to get better. i worry when my daughter goes out in our neighborhood. i live in the projects where these groups gather to gether and harass others. i ask her not to come here late at night or if she can stay over a friends house.

    Maybe so, or maybe we're posting about it more. I kinda hope it's the latter.
