LOWER EAST SIDE — Police are searching for a man who stole more than $2,000 from a 40-year-old woman’s bank accounts last month.

The man used “several” ATM machines from delis and a Citibank in Queens to withdraw $2,400 from the Ludlow Street resident’s checking and savings accounts between Oct. 16 and 22, according to the NYPD.

The woman did not lose her cards and police believe the cards may have been skimmed, according to an NYPD spokesman.

An ATM in a Queens grocery store located at 8233 Broadway captured an image of the suspect wearing a red shirt underneath a dark coat and a backwards baseball cap in red, according to the NYPD.

Police said the suspect was between 40 to 50 years old.

Anyone with information is asked to call Crime Stoppers at 1-800-577-TIPS or visit its website.
