"Police from the 108th Precinct in Long Island City and Transit District 20 are looking for a suspect who allegedly stole a wallet from an R train rider in Woodside late last month. The incident occurred on the afternoon of Wednesday, July 30, inside the Broadway/Northern Boulevard subway station just before 3 p.m., when the 22-year-old victim dropped his wallet while passing through the turnstiles. A much older stranger stooped down, grabbed the wallet and fled on foot in an unknown direction, police said."
"The wallet contained his driver's license, several credit cards, and approximately $800 in cash. The NYPD released surveillance images of the suspect and described him as having a medium complexion, approximately 50 to 50 years of age with black hair. He was last seen wearing camouflage cargo pants, a green t-shirt, white sneakers and a black baseball cap. Anyone with information regarding this grand larceny investigation is asked to call the NYPD's Crime Stoppers Hotline at 1-800-577-TIPS (8477) or for Spanish, 1-888-57-PISTA (74782)."
