That seems quite unfair. The NYPD was the one that located multiple pictures of the suspect, and I'm assuming did a good bit of detective work to ensure the pictures they released actually were of the suspect in question. Of course at some point after releasing photos of the suspect one would anticipate that someone who recognized them would turn them in.

Let me guess, you're the type of developer that says "Hah, it's crazy they have so many people, I could code up that project in a weekend!!"

“Detective” work is carrying a lot here which is really just comparing clothing, pictures, following the journey etc. all made possible from the surveillance resources and not their work. And after all that they didn’t even have him as a suspect lol.
