QUEENS — A pair of thieves has been breaking into cars parked in driveways in Ozone Park to steal gear including iPads, a laptop and GPS devices, police said.

The suspects have struck between 10 p.m. and 4:50 a.m. in at least four separate incidents so far, the NYPD said.

The first two reported robberies believed to be tied to the spree began on June 12 and 14, when they broke into vehicles and stole iPads, checkbooks, a debit card and a GPS device, police said.

The spree continued on June 17, when the suspects broke into a vehicle just after midnight and took an iPad, iPod and a pair of sunglasses, police said.

Ninety minutes later, they broke into a different car and took a Macbook, an airline ticket and some clothing, the NYPD said.

Anyone with information should contact Crime Stoppers at (800) 577-TIPS (8477).
