UPPER EAST SIDE — Two men crawled through the windows of a Second Avenue apartment on Monday and stole a silver J. Crew bracelet, according to the NYPD.

One of the suspect climbed into the side window of the apartment near East 80th Street at about 12:53 p.m. and snatched the $80 bracelet from the bedroom dresser, according to police.

It was unclear if the window was already unlocked or if the man forced it open, police said.

The suspect then unlocked a second window, letting another man into the apartment.

The pair of thieves were caught on surveillance video showing one suspect opening the window for the other, who then struggles to get into the apartment. Both were carrying backpacks and wearing baseball caps.

No one was home at the time of the burglary, police said.

Anyone with information about this burglary is asked to call Crime Stoppers at 1-800-577-TIPS (8477).
