Police are searching for an elderly man with a cane who allegedly swiped a woman’s wallet at a Kings Highway grocery store earlier this month.

The pickpocket made his move at 3pm on January 16 inside [Mama Liza’s Gourmet Foods](http://www.yelp.com/biz/mama-lizas-gourmet-foods-brooklyn?ref=bklyner.com), located at Kings Highway and East 18th Street, according to the NYPD. Cops say he pulled a wallet out of a 47-year-old woman’s pocket book. The wallet contained credit and debit cards and an undetermined amount of money, police say.
