BRONX - Cops are looking for a shoplifter who threatened a Bronx Good Samaritan with a gun when he tried to stop him from stealing.



At around 7 pm on January 25, a man walked into a clothing store in the HUB on 3rd Avenue. Cops say he took two expensive jackets off the rack and tried to walk out of the store with them.


A 42-year-old man at the store confronted the shoplifter and tried to stop him. That’s when cops say the thief lifted up his shirt to show the Good Samaritan the gun in his waist band.


The shoplifter walked away with the two jackets valued at around $1,600.


The suspect is described as a man with a dark complexion and facial hair. He is 6 foot 1 and weighs around 170 pounds. He was   last seen wearing dark colored pants, white and black sneakers, and a black varsity jacket with the words “New York High Skills” on the back.
