The NYPD is looking for a person wanted in connection with the burglary of a used car dealership in Laurelton earlier this month.

On Sunday, April 19, around 3:20 a.m., an unidentified person broke a small glass window on the front door of Kings Auto World, located at 185-26 Merrick Blvd., according to the police.
