Muggers feast on $190G of my cash

Eatery owner is still hurting from robbery

Nine days later, Bah was still in pain from the beating — and still in the dark over who was responsible.

“Right now I’m stuck,” said Bah, who is in the process of opening a restaurant in Manhattan.

“It’s a lot of money. You have to pay the landlord, you have to pay the gas, you have to pay the electric, you pay people to work, to cook in the kitchen.”

The surveillance clip shows two men walking into the building just as Bah is coming down the first flight of stairs with the white satchel in his right hand and a garbage bag full of clothes in his left.

The men pounced on Bah and immediately focused on the white bag.

One of the men eventually ripped it out of his hand and sprinted out of the building. His accomplice then let go of Bah and ran out, the video shows.

Once out the door, the men hopped into a green BMW SUV and headed north on Prospect Ave., a police source said.

One of them dropped a winter hat on the sidewalk during the getaway, the source said.

A police source said the bandits appeared to be lying in wait for Bah.

“They knew he had the money somehow,” the source said. “They knew he had money and they were waiting for him.”

Bah told police the cash was from the proceeds from the sale of a house in his home country — Guinea in West Africa.

He told investigators that he was bringing the money to his under-construction Manhattan restaurant.

Some of the cash was going towards a down payment on a new house, Bah also told investigators.

Bah said that his friends brought the cash to the U.S. in a series of small installments.

He told the Daily News that the restaurant he’s opening is called Golody Halal Buffet on First Ave. in Manhattan. Records show the eatery was registered with the state on Nov. 8.

Bah also told The News that one of the robbers had a gun, but police sources disputed that claim.

The robbery victim moved to the U.S. 17 years ago.

“You can’t feel safe now because you don’t know if it will ever happen again,” he said.

Cops are asking anyone with information about the robbery to call Crime Stoppers at (800) 577-TIPS.
