Cops are looking for a man who broke into the Barclays Center and stole an unopened bottle of Johnnie Walker Blue -- at least $179.99 a pop -- along with three iPads before fleeing the arena over the weekend, authorities say. 

The man, who was wearing a lanyard and a black hat with a B on it, "compromised" the side entrance door off Dean Street shortly before 5 a.m. Sunday and made his way inside the stadium. No cash was taken -- just the booze and the computers, police say. 

The suspect was last seen running north on Flatbush Avenue. Police released a surveillance image of him (above). Anyone with information is asked to call Crime Stoppers at 1-800-577-TIPS.
