Video footage that police released Thursday afternoon shows a man wanted for recently breaking into and stealing cash from a Glendale apartment.
Authorities said the burglary occurred at 2 p.m. on Aug. 1 at a basement apartment on 60th Lane in the vicinity of Cooper Avenue.
Reportedly, the suspect forced his way into a door leading to the apartment, then left briefly to stop at a deli located at 60-49 Cooper Ave., where he was filmed on security camera.
Following his visit to the deli, police said, the crook returned to the 60th Lane apartment and removed $1,300 in cash before fleeing. The tenant later reported the theft to the 104th Precinct.
