The New York City Police Department and Boro Park Shomrim are looking for a man suspected of four burglaries in Boro Park and Bensonhurst in April and May:

On April 26 at 9:15 p.m., the burglar entered Refuah Resources at 13th Avenue and 59th Street, through a side window. He then broke into an office and stole approximately $15,000 cash. The same night at 11:20 p.m., he entered a U-Haul and storage facility at New Utrecht Avenue and 66th Street by breaking a window. He searched around the location but, apparently not finding anything worthwhile to steal, he left without removing anything.

On May 13 at 3:40 a.m., the man again broke into Refuah Resources, and stole laptops worth $6,000 and approximately $5,000 cash. At 5:13 a.m. the same day, he broke into a realty office at 1521 70th Street through a window, stealing bank checks worth a total value of $4,300 and approximately $6,875 cash.

The suspect is described as a male approximately 5’8” tall, 150 pounds, with a dark complexion and a thin build.
