Gang Setting Booby-Traps

The Daily Mail reports:

The NYPD is warning Manhattan cyclists to beware gangs who are setting up booby traps along the bike path on the Hudson River and then beating and robbing the unfortunate victims. 
Police only have a vague description of the gang who have set up rope clotheslines designed to knock cyclists off their bikes before attacking them with bats and brass knuckles. 
Warning those who use the popular route to New Jersey that crosses the George Washington Bridge at 164th street in Washington Heights to be on their guard, the NYPD admit they are concerned by the spate of attacks.
The clotheslines are being strung at neck level.
