THE BRONX — A bandit better hope he picked up a "get out of jail free" card after being caught on camera entering a Morrisania apartment building where police believe he stole board games and other items earlier this week.

The suspect was seen on surveillance video wearing a green jacket and baseball hat while skulking around the lobby of the East 165 Street building around 2:06 a.m. on Monday, according to NYPD officials.

He was seen on video roaming the hallways and kicking one of the doors in the lobby of the building.

In addition to the board games, the suspect is also accused of stealing a Bluetooth speaker and other items.

He is described as standing approximately 6-foot-1 and weighing about 250 pounds.

Anyone with information is asked to call the NYPD’s Crime Stoppers at 1-800-577-TIPS (8477) or for Spanish, 1-888-57-PISTA (74782).
