Morales first struck on Christmas Eve when he followed an 88-year-old woman into her building on Beach 7th Street at around 3 p.m., cops said.

Once inside, the thief snatched $2,200 in cash, gold rings, a necklace and a bracelet, police said.
He pulled the same scam on Jan. 19 when he victimized an 89-year-old woman, from whom he stole $170, a necklace, ring and earrings, police said.
