NYPD seeks tips amid alarming rise in burglaries

Burglaries are up 71% so far this year on Staten Island, with 91 incidents reported as of March 16, compared to 53 last year, according to CompStat, the NYPD computerized system for tracking crimes.

In a request unrelated to the pharmacy burglary, the NYPD is asking for the public’s help to identify an individual sought for questioning in connection with a pattern of burglaries at restaurants and other businesses on Staten Island and in Manhattan and Brooklyn.

In one of the break-ins in the pattern, as previously reported by the Advance/SILive.com, an individual shattered glass entry doors at Max’s Es-Ca, a popular restaurant in Dongan Hills .

That restaurant heist has now been identified by the NYPD as part of a burglary pattern that includes 13 break-ins from January through March citywide, according to a statement from the NYPD’s Deputy Commissioner of Public Information.

In total, thousands of dollars in cash, along with registers, electronics, bottles of alcohol, beauty products and other property have been taken from businesses, police said.

Six incidents occurred on Staten Island, according to the NYPD.
