NEW YORK (CBSNewYork) -- A suspect surrendered Monday night in a robbery attack in Greenpoint, Brooklyn.
The suspect went to the 73rd Precinct police station, accompanied by his mother and a community activist.
Police said he is one of two men caught on camera last Tuesday near Morgan Avenue and Sutton Street. One acted as a lookout while the other three attacked a 61-year-old woman in her building lobby.
