Investigators are asking for help tracking down a man linked to robbing 4 people in a month across the Bronx.

Police say the robberies happened between June 5 and June 21. The suspect is accused of approaching the victims with a weapon, demanding their belongings, then taking their wallet and cellphone before running away.

"I wish they would hurry up and get them, because, you know, it does make me feel a little bit unsafe," said Bronx resident Rosalind. "I'm always looking around me... you know, I just got to be aware."

According to crime statistics, robberies within the NYPD's 52nd Precinct have gone up around 10% compared to this time last year.

Anyone who recognizes the man is asked to call Crime Stoppers at 1-800-577-TIPS.
