Detectives from the 111th Precinct in Bayside are still looking for two men who broke into a home near Bayside High School more than a month ago and stole a safe packed with cash and jewelry valued at more than $200,000.
Police say the suspects picked a lock at the home in the vicinity of 202nd Street and 28th Avenue during the early morning hours of May 1. Once inside, they removed the safe containing $50,000 and then swiped the jewelry before fleeing the home in an unknown direction.
No one was home at the time of the break-in, police said.
The two masked men were captured on security cameras inside the home.
One of the suspects wore a gray jacket over a blue hoodie and the other wore a black hooded jacket and black pants.
Up to $3,500 is being offered for information that leads to their arrest.
Anyone with information is asked to call the NYPD’s Crime Stoppers Hotline at 1-800-577-TIPS.
