Police say they're searching for a suspect accused of robbing a Rite Choice Pharmacy on East 170th Street on April 1.
They say the suspect put a bar of soap in his pants and when a 60-year-old employee approached him about it, the man punched the employee in the face and ran away.
The victim suffered a gash on the left side of his face but refused medical attention.
The item the suspect stole costs just over $5.
Anyone with information is asked to call Crime Stoppers at 1-800-577-TIPS.
