Police need your help in fi nding
a serial burglar who struck in
Ridgewood four times since
late October.
Law enforcement sources said
the crook fi rst struck at 2:22 a.m. on
Oct. 24, when he climbed through
an unlocked window of an apartment
in the area of Fresh Pond Road
and Madison Street.
Though he walked out of the apartment
moments later empty-handed,
authorities said, the bandit would
take advantage of unsecured windows
at three other locations.
At 4 p.m. on Oct. 27, police noted,
the bandit entered a home in the
area of Fresh Pond Road and Myrtle
Avenue. He removed more than
$9,500 in electronics and jewelry.
That same day in the same area, he
managed to enter another apartment
and stole $1,000 in jewelry.
Finally, at 8 a.m. on Nov. 10, the
perpetrator burglarized an apartment
on Palmetto Street near Fresh
Pond Road. He reportedly stole $620
in electronics and purses.
Each incident was reported to the
104th Precinct.
On Dec. 12, police released video
footage of the perpetrator inside one
of the apartments. He’s described as a
white man between 20 and 30 years of
age wearing all black clothing.

the burglary pattern can
