Tribeca Duane Reade Hit Twice in One Week: Here's What Shoplifters Stole

TRIBECA, NY — Two shoplifters got away with over $4,679 in drug-store loot — including perfumes, hair and beauty products, razor blades, infant formula and crew socks — from the Duane Reade at 250 Broadway, according to the New York City Police Department (NYPD).

In the first robbery, on Saturday, Nov. 12, at about 12:12 p.m., an assistant manager noticed a man walking through the aisles at the same time that items off the shelf were going missing, police said. The assistant manager, 26, checked surveillance video and saw the suspect — described as 5 feet, 8 inches with a cropped "Caesar" haircut — taking items off the shelf and stuffing them into his bags and his shirt, according to a police report.

The assistant manager then went back further on the tape, and saw the suspect snatching stuff two more times, police said.

In all, police said the first suspect got away with:

• 164 L'Oreal, Revlon and Maybelline products
• 16 OGX bottles of shampoo and conditioner
• 28 bottles of Aveeno
• 31 razors and razor blades
• Various body sprays.

The second robbery took place on Saturday, Nov. 19, when a different suspect entered the store around 8:14 a.m. Here's what the suspect allegedly swiped:

• 13 containers of Enfamil and Similac infant formula
• 12 perfumes
• 14 products for weight loss and testosterone supplements
• Hanes men crew socks

A 29-year-old store employee told police the second suspect looked around 45 years old, with blue eyes and a bald head, standing about 6 feet tall and weighing about 120 pounds.
