QUEENS — A trio of thieves with expensive taste stole more than $1,700 worth of liquor from three Forest Hills stores in less than an hour, police said.

The suspects hit all three locations on Monday, Nov. 16, grabbing pricey items and fleeing without paying, according to the NYPD

The trio targeted mostly bottles of Hennessy cognac, Ciroc and Belvedere vodka, and Patron tequila, authorities said.

The men walked into the first store at 112-24 Queens Blvd. at 5:25 p.m., snatched items worth $738 and left, police said.

At 6 p.m., they hit another location, at 105-18 Metropolitan Ave., and stole $306 worth of liquor, police said.

Only 10 minutes later, the suspects entered a store at 71-71 Yellowstone Blvd. and took bottles worth $670, officials said.

Forest Hills police tweeted a surveillance picture of the suspects.

Anyone with information is asked to call the 112th Precinct at (718) 520-9311.
