The NYPD is looking for the man who robbed a bank in Astoria last week.
On Thursday, Jan. 21, around 9:30 a.m., an unidentified man walked into a Citi Bank branch, located at 22-16 31st St., according to the NYPD.
The man, who was wearing a face mask, beanie cap and a hard hat, walked up to a 26-year-old teller and handed him a note demanding cash, according to the police.
The teller gave the robber around $600 in cash, cops said.

As part of their investigation, police recovered video of the suspect prior to the robbery.
