There has been a recent surge of burglaries in Williamsburg.

Three separate incidents occurred on Bedford Avenue within a 12-day period. 

"It's definitely concerning," shares Jada Coley, who works on Bedford Avenue.  "It's not something that anyone wants to happen in their neighborhood." 

The first burglary occurred at Cronicle, located at 366 Bedford Ave., on Aug. 6. Police say an individual broke into the store while it was closed and left with stolen goods.

On Aug. 14, the same thing happened - this time, with two additional individuals involved.

The third incident happened just five blocks down at Plantia Cannabis Shop on 265 Bedford Ave.

The NYPD is asking for the public's help to identify the three people who they believe are connected to the pattern of crimes. Anyone with information is asked to call police.
