Teen terrors

Bonnie and Clyde they ain’t.

Police apprehended two teenagers who broke into apartments along Eastern Parkway between Underhill and Washington avenues on the morning of July 30.

Cops say that the suspects, a 19-year-old man and a 17-year-old female accomplice, were caught red-handed with a pair of computers, a Canon camera, an iPod and accessories for all their purloined electronics.

The property was boosted from apartments at 85 Eastern Parkway and 95 Eastern Parkway between 7:45 am and 11:30 am. The suspects were arrested later that day.

Broken window

A thief shattered the rear passenger window and robbed a car on Eastern Parkway between Plaza Street East and Underhill Avenue overnight on July 29.

The skell made off with a navigation system, a still camera and a video camera, shoes, clothes and a handbag.

One night earlier, the rear passenger window of a car parked on Park Place between Underhill and Washington avenues was broken, though the thief only managed to nab the airbag from the car.

Apple a day

Tech-hungry bandits nicked fancy gizmos throughout Prospect Heights this week. Here’s a rundown:

• A handyman finished his work in a Park Place apartment, between Underhill and Washington avenues, at around 1:45 pm on July 30 — and took the tenant’s white iPod as a tip.

• A dental assistant had her iPhone stolen when she left the office, which is on Vanderbilt Avenue between Dean and Bergen streets, to take a break at around 5 pm on July 29.

• Four days earlier, a thief stole the iPhone of a man who was eating lunch at Bob Law’s Seafood on Vanderbilt Avenue between St. Marks Avenue and Prospect Place.
