A thief stole electronics and clothing from a Midwood resident’s unlocked apartment, the Brooklyn News reported.

The suspect’s image was captured on surveillance as he attempted to enter the building on East 12th Street at around 2:45 a.m. Thursday, cops said. In the video, the suspect looks cold and so it’s no surprise that among the things taken from the apartment were four jackets.

The Midwood resident remained asleep throughout the theft.

Anyone with information is asked to call Crime Stoppers at (800) 577-TIPS (8477). The public can also submit their tips by logging onto Crime Stoppers’ website or by texting their tips to CRIMES (274637), then entering TIP577.
