A scooter-riding menace is robbing Carroll Gardens delivery men at knifepoint, police said Tuesday.

On March 9, a delivery man brought an order to 139 Luquer St. When he arrived around 11:30 p.m., a man approached him with a knife drawn and robbed him of $200, authorities said.

Less than two weeks later, the same man targeted another delivery man outside 74 Fourth Pl. around 2:30 p.m., cops said. The suspect placed a knife to the delivery man’s chest and stole $250.

He then scooted off with his bounty.

Authorities are looking for the man in this video, distributed by the NYPD.

Police could not confirm whether the suspect placed the delivery orders at the restaurants.

The same man is suspected of breaking into a woman’s apartment near Fourth Place and Clinton Street on March 22 and stealing her keys, a ceramic bowl, a Bluetooth speaker, and $5 in coins, cops said.
