STATEN ISLAND — Cops are searching for two men who allegedly stole displayed iPhones at two Staten Island T-Mobile stores last month.

On two separate occasions, the suspects walked into different T-Mobile stores, cut the cables attached to iPhones on display, and walked out of the store with the phones, the NYPD said.

The pair first hit the T-Mobile store at 34 Barrett Ave. in Elm Park on April 21 about 4:40 p.m, cops said. Two days later, the suspects went into the location at 2122 Richmond Ave. in New Springville about 6:45 p.m. and took the iPhones on display, police said.

Police have released security camera footage of the suspects captured inside the Richmond Avenue store.
