Nine-member burglary crew hits two Whitestone homes in four days, leaving one man stabbed: NYPD

Police from the 109th Precinct in Flushing are looking for a burglary crew that broke into two homes on the same Whitestone block four days apart.

The first break-in went down at around 3 a.m. on Wednesday, Jan. 1, when a group of nine young men entered a home in the vicinity of 2nd Avenue and 147th Place by breaking a living room window. Once inside the residence, a block east of Francis Lewis Park, the burglars allegedly removed $25,000 in cash and a bracelet, police said Thursday.
