MIDTOWN — Police are hunting a man they suspect of robbing four people at gunpoint over two days.

The muggings happened in Midtown and the Upper East Side on Sunday, Sept. 23, and Monday, Sept. 24.

All four of the robberies happened in the early morning, according to police.  

Police said a man, 51,  was robbed at 4:20 a.m. Sunday at 213 East 88th St., and a 25-year-old man was mugged an hour later just a few blocks away, at 333 East 70th St.

The suspect allegedly robbed his third victim, a 42-year-old woman, the next morning in front of 320 West 55th St. at around 2 a.m., police said. He then walked some 150 feet down the block to hold-up another victim at 340 West 55th St., according to police.

A video released by police shows the suspect as bald and wearing dark baggy clothing.

Anyone with information about the robberies is asked to call the NYPD's Crime Stoppers Hotline at 800-577-TIPS.
