Should've used a blanket.
The NYPD is asking for citizens help to identify and locate three men wanted for burglary after breaking into an apartment on December 18.

The crime took place in the morning, around 8:30 a.m., at 1180 Lebanon Street in the Bronx neighborhood of Tremont Park. Three hooded Hispanic males were captured on security cameras entering and leaving the apartment building. Authorities have judged them to all be around 5 and a half feet tall and weighing anywhere between 150 and 170 pounds. Their faces, however, were slightly shrouded by the hoods and ball caps they wore, so cops didn't feel confident guessing at an age.

Burglary suspects
​Cops are looking for two daring burglars who sneaked into a first-floor East Village apartment at 11:30 p.m. January 5, scared the hell out of a 79-year-old woman there, then scurried down the fire escape to another apartment, where they stole jewelry, a laptop, and credit cards. This all took place at 127 East Seventh Street. There are photos of the alleged scumbags, both of them 25 to 35 years old, one wearing a brown jacked and multi-colored hat and the other wearing a black jacket and black knit cap.
