CONCOURSE — A man threatened his victim with a gun and stole his phone inside a Bronx laundromat, police said.

The attacker entered Super Laundromat at 1133 Morris Ave. at 1:50 a.m. on March 31 and began pacing as he talked on his cellphone — while his victim was sitting in a chair neaby, NYPD said.

The suspect then suddenly approached the victim, brandished a gun and grabbed his Samsung Galaxy S4 before fleeing the store, police said.

Police described the thief as 5-foot-8, between 18 and 22 years old and weighing 150 pounds. He was last seen wearing a black coat, black sweat pants with stripes and black and white sneakers.

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