Police are searching for a brazen robber who snatched a woman's purse inside a Queens supermarket earlier this month.

Investigators say the man, seen above, took the woman's purse from her cart while she shopped at Brach's Glatt Kosher meat market on Main Street in Kew Gardens back on August 3.

The woman was not hurt.

The man is described as being about six feet tall, weighing 180 pounds and was last seen wearing a black shirt with white lettering.

Anyone with information on the case should contact the Crime Stoppers hotline at 1-800-577-TIPS, or text CRIMES and then enter TIP577, or visit www.nypdcrimestoppers.com.
