Knife-Wielding Nassau Serial Robber Strikes Again

ELMONT, NY - An Elmont Dunkin' Donuts was robbed at knifepoint early Tuesday morning by a man police believe is responsible for at least 10 other recent robberies in Nassau County, police said.

The robber, armed with a large kitchen knife, entered the store on 238-19 Linden Boulevard, approached the counter and demanded an employee to open the cash register just after midnight.

After taking an undisclosed amount of money, he fled the store and was last seen heading northbound on 238th Street.

There were four employees in the store at the time of the robbery. No injuries were reported.

The man is described as being about 25-years-old, 6-feet tall and about 170 pounds.

He was wearing a dark colored hooded jacket, blue jeans and tan work boots. He also had dark sunglasses on, a dark colored cloth across his face and gloves.

The man is suspected to be connected to ten other robberies in Nassau County.

According to authorities, the man typically enters stores, produces a large knife, demands cash and flees on foot. The man has been known to wait inside the business until there are no customers present before he commits the robbery, police say.

The below videos are surveillance footage taken of the suspect from a Dunkin’ Donuts robbery that occurred in New Hyde Park on March 1.

Police are asking anyone with information regarding any of the robberies call Crime Stoppers at 1-800-244-TIPS. All callers will remain anonymous.
