Migrant teen accused in Times Square attack on cops is arrested again for Macy’s robbery
NY Post
One of the migrants allegedly involved in a mob assault on a pair of cops in Times Square has been arrested again — this time for participating in a coordinated robbery of a Macy’s store in Queens.
Darwin Andres Gomez-Izquiel, 19, was arrested Tuesday night and charged with robbery and petit larceny, police announced.
He is one of four people charged for allegedly entering the Queens Center Mall around 5:33 p.m. Tuesday and “acting in concert” to steal clothes that they tried to hide in bags.
When a 27-year-old security guard confronted the group, they “struggled,” police said, and one of the suspects punched him in the face.
The security guard suffered minor injuries as a result, but refused medical attention at the scene.
Gomez-Izquiel was led out of the 110th Precinct station in handcuffs shortly after 11 a.m. Wednesday on his way to Queens Criminal Court for his arraignment on the new robbery and petty larceny charges.
