The NYPD has released this photograph of a smiling individual suspected of stealing an iPad from a subway passenger.

The 34-year-old male victim was enjoying his iPad on a Queens-bound A train on Sunday, March 30th. When the train arrived at the Nostrand Avenue station around 3:20 p.m., police say the suspect snatched the iPad out of the victim's hands and ran off. Just like the NYPD predicted in this video!

The police describe the suspect as approximately 20 years old, 5'10" and 150 lbs. Anyone with information is asked to call Crime Stoppers at (800) 577-TIPS (8477). The public can also submit their tips by logging onto Crime Stoppers' website at www.nypdcrimestoppers.com or by texting their tips to CRIMES (274637), then enter TIP577.
