Police are on the lookout for a dastardly duo who they say robbed two Brooklyn cellphone stores in as many months.
The pair used the same modus operandi in both heists — the two brigands enter the store, and one threatens an employee with a gun while the other walks behind the counter and pilfers cash and phones, cops said.
The raiders first pulled the stunt at a store in Williamsburg on Havemeyer Avenue near South Fourth Street at 2 pm on July 26, then again in Fort Greene on Myrtle Avenue near Carlton Street at around 6:30 pm on Aug. 13, according to a report.
Police have released images of the two guys they believe are responsible, taken from security footage just before the Fort Greene robbery.
Authorities describe one as a 25–to-30-year-old man, who was wearing a blue button-down shirt, a blue Yankees cap, and sunglasses at the time, and the other as a 25–to-30-year-old man who was wearing a pink button-down shirt, a gray cap, and sunglasses.
Police ask anyone with information about the crime to call Crime Stoppers at (800) 577–8477. Tips can also be submitted by logging onto Crime Stoppers’ website at www.nypdc
