NEW YORK (1010 WINS) — A 55-year-old man entering his Brooklyn home Monday night was confronted by a knife-wielding robber demanding $1 before fleeing with more cash, police said.
According to police, it happened on Cornelia Street and Irving Avenue in Bushwick around 8 p.m. when the thief crept up behind him and asked for the dollar.
When the victim took out his wallet, the suspect demanded all his money and forcibly removed around $200 from his hand.
The robber then ran off to parts unknown, police said.
There were no physical injuries reported.
Police on Wednesday released a surveillance image of the suspect, who remains at large.
Anyone with information is asked to call Crime Stoppers at (800) 577-TIPS. All calls will be kept confidential.
