The resurgence of avian flu at two animal slaughter markets in Queens has renewed urgent calls to shut down New York City’s densely packed wet markets.

A man was beaten with a hammer and robbed by four strangers inside a restaurant in Flushing on the night of Saturday, Feb. 22, and the suspects remain at large.

The 40-year-old victim entered an unnamed restaurant in the vicinity of Northern Boulevard and Union Street with two 16-year-old boys for a late dinner just before 10 p.m. when four young men walked into the restaurant and ordered the three victims to get on the floor. Acting in concert, the suspects brandished a hammer and smashed the 40-year-old in the head, and removed $1,000 in cash, police said Thursday.

New York City’s affordable housing landscape remains one of the most complicated — and contentious — in the nation. Despite billions of dollars in annual investments, the crisis persists, leaving many New Yorkers struggling to secure a roof over their heads.

The Queens Special Victims Squad is looking for a scooter-riding groper who targeted a 37-year-old woman in Elmhurst in broad daylight on the afternoon of Saturday, March 1.

The victim was walking past a house at 41-47 77th St. at around 1:15 p.m. when the suspect rode up behind the victim and grabbed her rear end, police said Wednesday. The perpetrator sped away from the scene on his red and black scooter northbound on 77th Street before turning left onto Roosevelt Avenue and heading toward Jackson Heights.
