A restaurant owner in Park Slope is hoping the public can help identify a suspect who stole money from his business.

Athena Mediterranean Cuisine owner Spiro Hiotis says his restaurant was robbed twice this month.

He says two suspects broke into the restaurant through a side delivery entrance March 5, stealing $2,000 in cash. He says another robbery was caught by surveillance cameras last Thursday as well.

"He took whatever he thought he could, which was small amount, but the fear that he put in us thinking it's going to happen again, that's more important than the money that he took," he says.

Hiotis says he made security changes after the break-ins and is hoping someone will recognize the man seen in the surveillance video.
