Police say they're searching for a man wanted in a robbery in Brighton Beach.
Investigators say a 47-year-old man was napping on a stoop on Coney Island Avenue last Saturday when he was robbed.
Surveillance video shows the suspect walking up to the man several times around 2 a.m. The suspect was smoking a cigarette and used a flashlight at one point. He allegedly went back several times to remove more items from the victim.
Police say the suspect stole a $2,000 bracelet, a $1,000 chain, a $200 Tommy Hilfiger vest and a $200 Calvin Klein wallet. The victim's ID and bank cards were also stolen.
The victim went to police when he woke up and realized what was taken.
