Later that night, at approximately 8 p.m., the crook entered a home near 45th Street and Skillman Avenue. Once inside, he snatched a designer bag before running off, according to authorities. Police recovered the stolen jewelry from the first location inside of this residence.

The suspect is described as Hispanic and was last seen wearing all black.

Police released surveillance video and a photograph that were obtained from the first incident.
