The NYPD has asked the public to take a close, contemplative look at these surveillance photos to see if someone can identify one or both of the men depicted as they are wanted for stealing cellular phones from two Richmond Hill AT&T stores last month.
According to police reports, on Friday, March 4, around 11 a.m., one suspect entered the AT&T store on Liberty Avenue near 122nd Street, removed a Microsoft Lumia phone and an LG G4 phone and fled the scene.
One of the suspects hit the same establishment on Tuesday, March 8, around 3:50 p.m.; that day he made off with an iPhone 6S.
And on Monday, March 7, at 8 p.m., a suspect entered the AT&T store on Liberty Avenue near 117th Street, removed two iPhone 6 phones and fled the premises.
Anyone with information is asked to call the NYPD’s Crime Stoppers Hotline at (800) 577-TIPS (8477) or for Spanish, 1-888-57-PISTA (74782). The public can also submit info by logging onto NYPDCrimestoppers.com or by texting their tips to 274637 (CRIMES) then enter TIP577. All correspondences are strictly confidential.
