Bronx burglars flee smoke shop through 'hole in a wall': NYPD

NEW YORK (1010 WINS) — Police on Tuesday released a photo of two men wanted for burglarizing a Bronx smoke shop last week.

It happened at approximately 1:40 a.m. on Monday, Sept. 2, authorities said.

According to officials, two suspects forcibly entered a smoke shop located at 330 East Gun Hill Road in Norwood through a hole in a side wall.

The suspects removed an unknown sum of money and fled the location on foot to parts unknown.

In a similar burglary spree last year, a pair of burglars allegedly used a "secret hole" to repeatedly burglarize a smoke shop in Bedford-Stuyvesant.

Anyone with information in regard to this incident is asked to call the NYPD's Crime Stoppers Hotline at 1-800-577-TIPS (8477).
