A knife-wielding goon robbed a senior citizen inside his Midwood house on Sept. 25, law enforcement officials said.
The 70-year-old victim was home when the fiend entered the residence on E. 4th Street near Avenue L at 8 pm, police said. The robber put a knife to the back of the victim’s head and demanded to be taken to the safe, according to cops.
The ruffian stole $4,500 dollars from the lockbox, then sped away in a black van, per the authorities.
The suspect is in his 30s and was wearing blue jeans and a blue sweater or vest at the time of the crime, officers stated.
