Serial Burglar Accused Of Breaking Into 4 Businesses

NEW YORK (CBSNewYork) – Police are searching for a man they say broke into four businesses last month in Brooklyn and Manhattan.

In the first incident, the suspect was seen on surveillance video carrying a large safe from Madam X on West Houston Street in SoHo. Police said he left the safe unopened on the sidewalk.

About three weeks later, the man allegedly stole $90 from Bombay Kabab on Seventh Avenue in Park Slope and then $300 from Park's Laundry and Tailor on Kings Highway in Sheepshead Bay.

Anyone with information about the crime spree is asked to call NYPD's Crime Stoppers hotline at 1-800-577-TIPS (8477) or 1-888-57-PISTA (74782) for Spanish. You can also submit a tip via the Crime Stoppers website, by Tweeting @NYPDTips or by texting a tip to 274637 (CRIMES) and then entering TIP577.
