Police are asking for the public’s aid in finding a woman suspected of sneaking into a 28th Avenue home in broad daylight on July 14 and making off with $120.

The victim told police that he found the woman in his house at around 1:45 pm, when he came back in from taking the garbage out. The suspect was hiding in his bathroom, and claimed she “just needed to use the bathroom,” according to a police report.

The woman fled the house, and the victim later discovered the money was missing.

The suspect is approximately 25-years-old, stands about 5-foot-8, and weighs around 120 pounds.

Anyone with information regarding the incident is asked to call Crime Stoppers at (800) 577–8477. The public can also submit tips by logging onto the Crime Stoppers website at www.nypdcrimestoppers.com or by texting tips to 274637 (CRIMES) then entering TIP577. All tips are strictly confidential.
