Tattoo Crook Helps Himself to Cash

Police are looking for this man in connection with the robbery of a Bron tattoo parlor.

BRONX - Cops are looking for a crook who ripped off a Bronx tattoo parlor.




The  NYPD released surveillance video of the crook robbing the tattoo shop in the busy HUB commercial district over the summer.


At around 8:50 pm on August 20, a suspect in a white t-shirt and blue shirts walked into the Tattoo and Piercings Parlor at 2944 Third Avenue through an unlocked door.





The man walked behind the counter and opened the cash register removing $1,000 in cash. He then fled the shop without incident.




The suspect is described as  a male who is 5 foot 9. He has a dark complexion, slim build, brown eyes and short dark cut-close hair. He was last seen wearing a white t-shirt with a graphic on the front, red and blue shorts and white sneakers.




The tattoo thief is similar to a recent robbery where a thief helped himself to the cash register.




At around 6:30 am on October 28, the suspect decked out in a mask, hoodie and a multi-colored shirt walked into the Dunkin’ Donuts on East 167th Street. Cops say he walked behind the store counter and demanded the key to the cash register. The worker handed over the key and the thief popped open the register and removed $1,500 from the till. 




It does not appear that the two cases are connected.


Anyone with information in regard to this incident is asked to call the NYPD's Crime Stoppers Hotline at 1-800-577-TIPS (8477) or for Spanish, 1-888-57-PISTA (74782). The public can also submit their tips by logging onto the CrimeStoppers website at https://crimestoppers.nypdonline.org/ or on Twitter @NYPDTips. 


All calls are strictly confidential.
