Case Story |
|

Victim Becomes Cop To Track Down Criminals |
|
| |
One of the NYPD officers who tells AMW that Israel Or and Yossi Bensadon robbed a carwash knows exactly what happened that day.
Officer Thalia Chin knows that one of the men was a bodybuilder and the other one was skinny. She also knows that they wrapped the bookkeeper in duct tape after they stuck a gun in the woman's face and demanded to get in.
Thalia knows all the details because she was that bookkeeper.
The robbery on Feb 21, 2003, affected her so deeply, that she decided to become a cop to keep people in the 23rd Precinct safe from the violence she experienced firsthand.

A Familiar Face |
|
| |
Thalia was working at the Win Caf Carwash, an Israeli-owned business, which dealt only in cash. At 7:35 a.m., two men came into the office of carwash, claiming to be florists with a delivery.
She let them in and recognized one of the men, who had light blue eyes. A week before the robbery, a muscular man came in and asked for a job. The man's voice and his distinct blue eyes stuck in her memory. Officials say that man is Israel Or.
But the situation instantly changed when Or put on a ski mask. Cops say Or and Bensadon then put a 9mm Glock handgun to Thalia's head and screamed to let them into the safe- or they would kill her on the spot. Fearing for her life, she opened the door. After the two men barged in, they tied up Thalia, stole all the cash in the safe and from other places where they thought money was stashed.
Then, they ran away. |

After allegedly ripping off close to $150,000, Or and Bensadon have left the New York City area and have gone their separate ways. Authorities believe that Or has returned back to Israel, where he is a citizen, and started up a nightclub in the Elat area. Bensadon has been spotted in Sherman Oaks, Ca., Miami and in the Hasidic community in Munsey, NY.
Both men are Israeli nationals who were illegally in the United States at the time of the crime and have served in the Israeli army.
Now cops across the country and around the world are on the lookout for these two fugitives--but no one is as interested in their capture as Police Officer Chin. |
