The NYPD is searching for a man who assaulted and robbed another man in the Bronx last month.

According to the NYPD, on June 28, at midnight, an unknown man approached a 55 year-old male in front of a residential apartment in the vicinity of McClellan Street and Grand Concourse and engaged in a verbal dispute with him.
