NY Post
A brazen thief snatched a straphanger’s wallet out of his hand before bolting inside a Lower Manhattan subway station this week, new video shows.
The 49-year-old victim was standing at a MetroCard machine at the Centre Street and Chambers Street station, on the J line, around 6:40 p.m. Monday — when a stranger passed through the turnstile and approached him, the clip released early Tuesday shows. The suspect paced around behind the victim for a few seconds before swiping the wallet from his hand as he turned around, the clip shows.More Related News
