Suspect Nabbed Cash, Meds, & Guitar In Midwood

Police are looking for a man suspected of two rather eclectic robberies only blocks apart in Midwood earlier this year.

The suspect broke into Empire State Colon & Rectal Surgery at 1928 Bay Avenue between 5pm on January 31 and 8am on February 2, according to info just released by NYPD. He stole cash along with various medications.

Then, on February 3 just before 2am, he reportedly struck again at the Avenue M Pharmacy between East 12th and East 13th Streets, nabbing wads of cash, Oxycodone, and an electronic guitar.

The individual is described by police as male — which is pretty much all that can we can see in the blurry photo issued by NYPD.
