The police are looking to identify a suspect who followed a man into an Astoria check cashing store last month and then stole $27,000 in cash from the victim.
The victim, a 36-year-old man, was approached in David’s Check Cashing, located at 23-05 31st Street, at roughly 11 am on Oct. 23.
The suspect approached the victim with his hand covered by a plastic bag, simulating a weapon and demanded cash, according to an NYPD spokesman.
The victim handed over a bag containing roughly $27,000 in cash. The suspect then fled the location.
The victim was uninjured.
