Cops are looking for a crook who robbed multiple EMS workers during fake calls in Brooklyn.

Police say that at 11 p.m. on Dec. 7, EMS workers responded to a 911 call at 365 Sackman Street. Once inside, an unknown man approached the workers, pulled out a firearm and demanded their property.

The suspect then forcibly took medical supplies, a radio and a tablet before fleeing the scene in an unknown direction.

The suspect struck again on Dec. 12. At 2:30 a.m. that day, EMS workers responded to a 911 call at 330 Frost Street. Once inside, the suspect approached the workers and pulled out a firearm, demanding their property.
