The East West shop on Fourth Avenue was robbed at about 3 PM on November 20.

Take a look at the video footage.

He's described as a white male, in his 20s, thin build, 5'7" or 5'8". He was clad at the time in tan cargo pants, a dark hooded sweatshirt, ski mask, and sunglasses, with gloves bearing the New York Yankees emblem.

The suspect rode what appeared to be a black mountain bike with a rear-mounted storage rack, police said.

He left the bike in front of the shop, flashed a black handgun and handed the owner a black drawstring-type gym bag bearing the legend "Risk Everything 2014," along with the image of a skull, ordering the owner to fill it with cash, police said.

He exited with money, left the bag behind, and was seen pedaling north on Steiner Avenue, police said.
