UPPER EAST SIDE — Two men snatched nearly $3,000 worth of shades from a Sunglass Hut on Third Avenue and took off without paying, according to the NYPD.
Two men walked into the 1023 Third Ave. store, near East 61st Street, at about 7:30 p.m. on Dec. 8, and took several sunglasses off shelves near the door and left without paying, authorities said.
The glasses were valued at a total of $2,907, they added.
Police described both men as roughly 45 years old. One was about 155 pounds, standing 5-foot-9, and was wearing a baseball hat, jacket and jeans, and carried a cane.
The second suspect weighs about 170 pounds, stands 6 feet tall, and wore a plaid, button-down shirt and a Kangol hat.
Employees at the Sunglass Hut declined to comment on Monday.
