The NYPD is looking for a man who allegedly broke into two businesses in Forest Hills in the past month, taking cash, laptop computers and even potted plants.

The first incident occurred May 19 around 11 p.m. when the suspect entered H&L Counseling Services, located at 115-10 Queens Blvd., and took $2,000 cash and two laptops valued at $800 before he fled on foot, police said.

The second incident occurred June 1 around 8 a.m., when the suspect broke into the Greisner Dental office at 69-60 108th St. through an unlocked first floor window and took potted plants before he fled on foot, according to the NYPD.

The suspect was caught on surveillance video at the dentist’s office, the police said. He is described as a 25-year-old Hispanic man with a medium build and dark hair. He was last seen wearing slacks, dress shoes and a button-down shirt with a tie.

Anyone with information is asked to call the NYPD’s Crime Stoppers Hotline at 1-800-577-TIPS.
