This is the best summary I could come up with:
The final image in the series shows the moped driver sprawled flat on the ground, with the daring officer pinning the suspected criminal down with his knee and placeing cuffs around his wrists.
‘Addressing lawlessness and community quality of life concerns, Times Square Public Safety, MidtownSouth and Midtown North precincts conducted a joint Moped Operation.’
The notorious gang has been referred to as ‘an invading criminal army’ by US lawmakers and a member is suspected of the brutal murder of Georgia nursing student Laken Riley.
Mata is believed to be a member of the gang based on his social media posts and a distinctive tattoo on his arm of a clock attached to an anchor, which is known to be tied to the group, the sources said.
One of the most shocking thefts involved a migrant on a moped dragged a 52-year-old woman along a Big Apple street to steal her phone - a robbery caught on surveillance footage.
The scooter thief reportedly stole her bag, phone, credit cards, keys, glasses, $60 cash and her ID last month in the Sheepshead Bay section of Brooklyn.
