BRONX - Cops are looking for a onesy wearing food delivery man who allegedly stole 10 grand when he dropped off some Big Macs. 



At around 2:30 am on September 13, a 27-year-old woman in Unionport placed an order for McDonald’s through Uber Eats. She instructed the deliveryman to place the order through an open window of an apartment building in the vicinity of Haviland Avenue and Olmstead Avenue. 


The NYPD released surveillance video of the alleged Uber Eats driver riding up on an e-bike. Cops said instead of abiding by the instructions he placed the food order at the apartment door inside the building. Then, investigators said, the deliveryman walked out and went up to the open window. He allegedly reached in and removed a purse before riding off. 



Cops said the purse contained $10,000 in cash. 


The suspect is described as a male with a dark complexion and a beard. He was last seen riding an e-bike and wearing a light colored matching sweat pants and hoodie that looks like onesy. 



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.
