Police are looking for a man they say has robbed two people in two different Brooklyn neighborhoods.  

The first incident was reported in Bushwick back on Oct. 10 in front of 1155 Halsey Street just before 12 p.m. Investigators say the man riding a moped approached a 17-year-old girl and forcibly removed her necklace.  

The second incident was reported the same day in Cypress Hills just 5 minutes later. Police say the same man approached a 25-year-old woman near Barbey Street and Arlington Avenue. The man also forcibly removed her necklace before fleeing.  

Anyone with information is asked to call the NYPD Crime Stoppers hotline at 1-800-577-TIPS (8477).
