DOWNTOWN BROOKLYN — This subway pickpocket had it her way.
A sticky-fingered suspect swiped a woman’s wallet at a Downtown Brooklyn subway station before using the victim’s credit card to grab a bite at Burger King, police said.
The 57-year-old victim was in the Hoyt-Schermerhorn station around 1:45 p.m. when she noticed her wallet was missing from her jacket pocket, the NYPD said.
The woman told police she was bumped as she was walking up the stairs to leave the station and that she thinks her wallet was stolen at that time, the NYPD said.
The suspect later used the victim’s credit card to make a purchase at a Williamsburg Burger King, police said.
Officials did not say how much money the woman spent at the fast-food joint or what she bought.
The NYPD released surveillance images of the suspect, who was last seen wearing sunglasses, a blue jean jacket, blue jeans and a red purse.
Anyone with information is asked to call Crime Stoppers at 800-577-TIPS.
