A bungling thief opened fire inside a Brooklyn post office on Monday after he poked his gun into a terrified customer — and the tellers ran, leaving him empty-handed, authorities and sources said.
The would-be robber stormed into the USPS’ Midwood branch on Coney Island Avenue near Avenue I around 1:15 p.m. but left without a cent — and may have tried to rob another spot less than a half hour later, police and sources said.
The gunman had demanded cash from the post office tellers and pushed his firearm against the back of the only customer in the place — a 37-year-old woman, who he may have also placed in a headlock, the sources said.
