Cops hunt Bronx robbery suspect

Police are on the lookout for a suspect wanted for a violent robbery in the Bronx early Friday morning.

According to authorities, surveillance video at a bodega on Allerton Avenue in Baychester showed a man punching an employee who was stocking shelves while standing on a milk crate inside the store.

The punch launched the 41-year-old victim into the air and onto the ground, at which point the suspect grabbed the victim’s cell phone and fled before police could arrive.
