CARROLL GARDENS — Police released new photos Thursday of the suspects in a string of knifepoint robberies of baby shops in Carroll Gardens and Park Slope.
The suspects are wanted in connection with an April 8 robbery at Area Play on Smith and Carroll streets, an April 28 robbery at Pink Olive on Fifth Avenue and Lincoln Place in Park Slope and a May 3 robbery at Tiny Brooklyn on Court and Huntington streets, police said.
In all three cases, a man entered the shop armed with a knife and stole cash from the register as well as employees' personal property, police said. An accomplice waited outside during each robbery, police said.
The NYPD obtained the new photos when the suspects used a stolen credit card from one of the robberies, police said.
Anyone with information on the robberies is asked to call the NYPD's Crime Stoppers Hotline at 1-800-577-TIPS (8477) or for Spanish, 1-888-57-PISTA (74782).
