Detectives are looking for a trio who assaulted a woman and whacked her car with bats on an East Harlem street.
According to police, at 7 p.m. on Feb. 11 a 22-year-old woman got out of her car in front of 1663 Park Avenue. She was then approached by three men, one of whom pulled out a gun.
The man handed off the gun to a second man, who proceeded to hit the victim on the left side of her head with the head of the gun.
