Police are searching for the suspects wanted in connection to a robbery in Bay Shore earlier this month.
According to police, two men approached a woman and her mother in front of a home on Hecksher Avenue on June 3 around 8:40 p.m.
Police say one of the men pulled a knife and pushed the mother to the ground. They say the other man held a gun to the other woman's neck and demanded cash.
The men stole the woman's backpack, $800 and fled in a dark-colored sedan.
Neighbors say crime has steadily increased in the neighborhood as a shooting took place just a few blocks away recently.
Suffolk County Police Commissioner Rodney Harrison says they are making sure to get their sketch out to the public.
"Hopefully, someone will have information so we can hold these people accountable and make an arrest," Harrison says.
One of the suspects is described as Black, approximately 6 feet tall with a medium build, medium complexion and with pock-marked cheeks.
Suffolk County Crime Stoppers are offering a cash reward and are asking anyone with information to call 1-800-220-TIPS.
