How does a thief inconspicuously smash a plate-glass door of a clothing store in the middle of Manhattan?
N.Y.P.D.
It helps, apparently, to do it at 3:30 a.m., as the star of the security video above (or here) did, according to the police, on Wednesday at the Lucky Brand store at 172 Fifth Avenue in the Flatiron district.
T he thief helped himself to some clothing, the police said. The same man smashed the window of an AT&T store nearby, at 1099 Broadway, on Monday and made off with some property (see video below or here), and on Nov. 15 stole cigarettes and DVDs from a Duane Reade in the vicinity, the police said.
The police do not have a detailed description of the man. Anyone with information about him is asked to contact Crime Stoppers.
