Grabbed and Grounded

Another woman was pulled to the ground and her iPhone taken. At 11:25 AM on Monday, August 26, a 28-year-old woman was walking on the northwest corner of First Avenue and East 90th Street looking at her phone, when a 20-year-old man approached her from behind, grabbed her left arm, and pulled her to the ground, causing pain to her left shoulder. He took her iPhone from her and then fled northbound on First Avenue. The victim later canceled her phone. It is possible that a camera in the area recorded the incident. The stolen cell was yet another iPhone 4S valued at $700.
