Niagara Falls Police was sitting on the side of 19th Street at Forest Avenue around 6pm on September 6th when officers began to hear yelling such as “help” and “no!” Officers then observed a black male running north on 19th Street.
Officers located the female victim who was “still in shock [with] fear throughout her face,” according to the official incident report. She stated that “a black male with no fingers just reached into her pocket almost pushing her over while she was walking home from Save-a-Lot."
In their report, officers noted that the male suspect, Justin Gabby, is known to law enforcement due to 10+ arrests over the past few years and the fact that he has “almost no fingers on both hands.”
The victim continued, stating that Gabby “reached into her pocket taking $11.”
Officers quickly located GabbyG who had not made it very far. He attempted to flee by jumping a fence but fell in his face. At this point officers utilized force to subdue him and place him under arrest.
Once in custody, officers transported Gabby to police headquarters for booking and processing. No further information is available at this time.
