UPPER EAST SIDE — The NYPD is looking for a man who broke into Parisian steakhouse Bistro Le Steak earlier this month.
The suspect was caught on a surveillance footage entering the 1309 Third Ave. restaurant's office, in the basement of the building, between 3:30 and 4:30 a.m. on July 5, according to a Twitter post from the 19th Precinct that included a picture of the suspect, who had a ponytail and was wearing a red shirt.
Police said the door to the office had been locked, but they could not immediately say whether the suspect took anything.
Bistro Le Steak serves French cuisine for brunch, lunch and dinner. The manager was not immediately available to comment on Monday morning.
Anyone with information about this incident is asked to call Crime Stoppers at 1-800-577-TIPS (8477). The public can also submit their tips by logging onto the Crime Stoppers website or by texting their tips to 274637 (CRIMES), then entering TIP577.
