Suffolk County Crime Stoppers and the Riverhead Town Police Department are seeking the public’s help to identify and locate a man they say stole money from two Riverhead businesses in December.
A man purchased food and performed “quick change scams,” during which he confused the cashiers into giving incorrect change, and stole a combined total of approximately $125 from Caruso’s Pizza and Tong Fu, both located on Old Country Road, on Dec. 7 at approximately 4 p.m., police said in a press release today.
Suffolk County Crime Stoppers offers a cash reward for information that leads to an arrest. Anyone with information about these incidents can contact Suffolk County Crime Stoppers to submit an anonymous tip by calling 1-800-220-TIPS, utilizing the P3 Tips app or by reporting online at www.P3Tips.com.
All calls, text messages and emails will be kept confidential, police said.
Editor’s note: A criminal charge is an accusation. A person charged with a crime is presumed innocent unless proven guilty in a court of law.
