Police have connected the suspects in a string of armed robberies across the city to two more incidents. The NYPD released new surveillance video early Wednesday.
In all, the two men are connected to eight armed robberies targeting stores in three boroughs during overnight hours. They have entered delis, dry cleaners and a 7 Eleven, holding up the clerks and demanding cash.
The first robbery happened on September 18 at 10:33 p.m. at the Essa Deli and Grocery Corp. on Barnes Avenue. They got away with $900.
Then on September 23 at 8:50 p.m. at the El Capitan Grocery store on Beach 72nd Street, they took $600 and packs of cigarettes.
The following day at 10:50 p.m., police say they struck again at the Community Deli Food Market on Carpenter Avenue.
The two suspects are accused in a fourth robbery on September 28 at 11:59 p.m. at the 73 Food Market Corp. on Decatur Street.
Just a few hours later, they robbed a 7-Eleven at that same location.
