Man in wheelchair choked, robbed in broad daylight a block from Trump Tower

A person in a wheelchair was choked and robbed of his cellphone in a broad-daylight Midtown assault this week, authorities mentioned Friday. 

The 40-year-old sufferer was on Fifth Avenue close to West 58th Avenue — a few block from Trump Tower — round 1:30 p.m. Wednesday when one other man approached him, put him in a chokehold and snatched his telephone, police mentioned. 

Good Samaritans tried to step in to cease the heartless criminal — however the suspect threatened them with a knife earlier than working off, cops mentioned. 

The sufferer refused medical consideration. 

No different accidents had been reported, police mentioned.

Authorities launched photographs of the suspect, proven sporting all black, with a silver or grey vest over his sweatshirt.
