NBC 4 New York’s lead sports anchor Bruce Beck was robbed of his wallet Wednesday night when he was confronted by a thief near the station’s studio at Rockefeller Plaza, according to police sources.
Beck, 66, was walking on 49th Street around 9:30 p.m. when the unidentified male ripped his back pocket and swiped the wallet, police sources told The Post. The thief ran off with another person who cops believe was a lookout.
Both individuals were last seen entering the 49th Street subway station in Midtown Manhattan, police said in a news release about the grand larceny case. No arrests were made on Thursday.
Beck was not hurt during the incident, cops said.

Crime goes up exponentially when subways head into cities. Easy on, easy off.
Ask Georgia.
GOOD!
He keeps his wallet in the back pocket instead of the side pocket?
Funny thing is, taking a wallet nowadays can mean 0 cash. Apple pay, Venmo, Zelle have all made cash pointless.
Did Atlanta just get a subway?
He’ was “robbed of his wallet”??? Is “mugged” politically incorrect now?
“Beck was not hurt during the incident, cops said” .. I guess they meant physically harmed, but I don’t think the word “hurt” is appropriate. I bet he views strangers with a lot more suspicion. .
Democrats robbed by Democrats. I’m sure they will blame Trump eventually
As far as I am concerned, any criminal act perpetrated against a Democrat, Presstitute or Public Employee should have NO CONSEQUENCES, THEY DESERVE IT.
Oy!!!
I meant public transportation!!!!!!!!
Sorry! And thanks!
wouldn't matter, they wouldn't prosecute. No big deal, this is what Bruce voted for. I hope he doesn't get really hurt and injured the next time.
Back in the day, when Giuliani ran NYC, a Golden Era for NYC, 49th Street near Rockefeller Center was very safe and you could not swing a dead cat without hitting a cop.
Cash is pointless, huh? I’ll admit that it’s nearly worthless, but pointless I don’t think so.
Involuntary reparations
Was New York’s 2022 General Election Valid?
And NYC has RCV for a reason.
Just a reminder of my heavy traveling days. I always kept a phony wallet full of Chilean Pesos and a few greenbacks, fake credit cards, and a dead cell phone for any robberies. while keeping everything important in a money belt. It never happened (probably because I am physically intimidating and don’t look like an easy roll) but just in case. And this was in third world s holes. Now... Thanks to Democrats, the third world s hole is here.
Ba, it’s like dropping your starbucks over there.
