NYPD: Stop These Brooklyn Package Thieves Before They Strike Again

A man-and-woman duo are wanted by the NYPD for stealing at least three packages from three different apartment-building lobbies in Williamsburg and Greenpoint in late October.

New surveillance footage released by police shows the male suspect, clear as day, hauling a very large cardboard box that does not belong to him out of one such lobby.

Below, the couple’s rap sheet so far, according to the NYPD.

• On Monday, Oct. 19, 2015, between the hours of 12 p.m. and 3 p.m., the suspects entered the lobby of an apartment building on Woodpoint Road, within the confines of the 94th Precinct, and removed a package that had been left there, a queen sized bed frame.

• On Thursday, Oct. 22, 2015, at 2:07 p.m., the suspects pried opened the lobby door of an apartment building on Maspeth Avenue, within the confines of the 90th Precinct, and removed a package that had been left there, green tea and two Magic Props.

• On Friday, Oct. 30, 2015, between the hours of 8:30 a.m. and 11:45 p.m., the suspects were buzzed into the lobby, by an unknown tenant, of an apartment building on Kingsland Avenue, within the confines of the 94th Precinct, and removed a package that had been left there, clothing and home goods.

(It‘s probably unrelated, but while we’re on the topic of package thieves in north Brooklyn: Another apartment building in Bed-Stuy was raided for packages on Oct. 21. In that raid, an dead woman’s ashes, en route to her daughter, were believed to be among the thief‘s stolen goods.)

Police are asking that anyone with information regarding the three burglaries listed above, or the pictured suspect, contact the NYPD’s Crime Stoppers hotline at 800-577-TIPS. Tips can also be submitted online or by texting 274637, then entering TIP577.
