Pair Steals $1.3K Worth of Products from Ridgewood Walgreens: NYPD

Feb. 12, 2020 By Allie Griffin

A pair of alleged burglars walked off with $1,300 worth of products from a Ridgewood Walgreens last month.

The two individuals went inside the Walgreens store, located at 58-02 Metropolitan Ave., around 3:20 p.m. on Saturday, Jan. 11 and then entered the basement stockroom, where they grabbed products off the shelves, police said.

They took items such as baby formula, energy drinks and candy bars from stock shelves and placed them into bags, which they carried out of the store, police said.

They fled on foot in an unknown direction.

Anyone with information in regard to this incident is asked to call the NYPD’s Crime Stoppers Hotline at 1-800-577-TIPS (8477) or for Spanish, 1-888-57-PISTA (74782).

The public can also submit their tips by logging onto the CrimeStoppers website at WWW.NYPDCRIMESTOPPERS.COM, or on Twitter @NYPDTips.
