Among the items found were more than 2,000 blank credit cards, embossing devices, credit card skimmers, 270 rounds of ammunition and an array of guns, including a .22 caliber revolver, officials said.

Police also recovered multiple cell phones and $508 in cash.

The four suspects lived in the apartment, according to the NYPD.
