The three men pictured at left flashed a gun and tried to rob a woman on a street in Sheepshead Bay — but a crowd gathered and scared off the brazen trio, police said.

The 48-year-old victim had just exited a Chase Bank branch on Nostrand Avenue near Avenue Y at about 10:10 a.m. Friday when the robbers approached and tried to grab her purse, cops said.

She resisted, and onlookers began yelling at the crooks, who turned tail and fled empty handed.

The gunman is in his 30s and was wearing a brown leather jacket, a green hooded sweat shirt and jeans, police said.
