Arrested! Pair Wanted for Stealing from Customers Arrested

By M.C. Millman

Following an in-store theft incident, in which a pair of thieves targeted a shopper in a Boro Park store and stole nearly one thousand dollars in cash from out of her open purse, as reported by BoroPark24 here, the pair was arrested with the assistance of Shomrim.

After the theft that took place a few days ago, Shomrim members went house to house in the neighborhood where the theft occurred and requested video footage. From the videos, they could see the pair getting into a car after the incident, and one of the cameras was able to read the license plate on the vehicle.

Shomrim then advised members to be on the lookout for the car along with the license plate number. After a Shomrim volunteer spotted the car and followed it, the pair was arrested by NYPD.
