Suspect's Pants Fall Down During Bodega Robbery

Police are looking for a man they say tried to rob a Brooklyn bodega and jumped the counter, grabbing cash out of the register when the store clerk refused. 

The video shows him scrambling to pull up his pants in the middle of the crime.

Police say the suspect walked into the store at Broadway and Kossuth Place in Bushwick Monday just before midnight, smoking a cigarette.

A clerk asked him to leave, and he demanded money.

When the clerk refused, the suspect jumped the counter and took cash from the register, according to police. His pants fell down in the chaos.

Police ask anyone with information to call 800-577-TIPS.
