She then saw the suspect standing on the roof of the victim’s apartment building, taking various jewelry from a small, wooden box, police said.

A security guard told police that he was inside the big-box hardware store between Bay 53rd Street and Hart Place at 7:20 pm when he saw the suspect place a sewage pump, a mini blind, a paint sprayer, a welder, and various other merchandise in his cart and attempt to leave without paying.
