By Mark Hallum

Police were looking for a man who allegedly swiped $200,000 from a Bayside home while disguising himself in a hazmat suit.

On the morning of Jan. 6, surveillance footage spotted him pulling into the driveway of a house at 15th Drive and 208th Place in a Mercedes Benz station wagon and entered through an unlocked back door, police said.

Once the suspect had gained entry, he removed a safe with around $200,000 in cash as well as some jewelry.
