CROWN HEIGHTS — Police are looking for a man who tried to use a stun gun on employees of a fried chicken restaurant in a fight over change, the NYPD said.

The suspect walked into Kennedy Fried Chicken at 263 Schenectady Ave. near Lincoln Place in Crown Heights around 2:45 p.m. Friday, police said.

Soon afterward, in a dispute over change, he tried to fire the gun over the counter of the eatery, the police department said, then fled on foot southbound on Schenectady Avenue.

No one was injured during the incident, police said.

The NYPD released an image of the suspect on Monday, showing a young man in a tank top behind safety glass. Police did not provide an estimate for the suspect’s age, saying only that he was last seen wearing the tank top, white pants and black shoes.

Anyone with information in regards to this incident is asked to call the NYPD's Crime Stoppers hotline at (800) 577-TIPS (8477) or for Spanish, (888) 57-PISTA (74782).
