NEW YORK (1010 WINS) — The NYPD released footage of a pair of burglary suspects who allegedly claimed to be federal agents to steal from a Bronx parking lot office.
Police said the two unidentified male suspects approached a male parking lot attendant, 67, on East 175th Street, near Washington Avenue, last Saturday at 12:20 p.m.
The first male displayed a shield and introduced him and the other as federal agents who were conducting an investigation, authorities said.
The NYPD said that as the first suspect spoke with the attendant the other removed $395 from the office.
The males then fled the site on foot and later in a black GMC Yukon XL SUV, police said.
Authorities released a photo of the first male wearing a shirt with “88” on the shoulder and the Snickers logo on the chest.
Anyone with information in regard to this incident is asked to call the NYPD's Crime Stoppers Hotline at 1-800-577-8477.
