WATCH: Thieves Robbing Greene Ave Market Take Empty Cash Register

FORT GREENE, BROOKLYN — Police are searching for two men who teamed up to rob the Greene Avenue Market early Sunday morning.

Just before 4 a.m. a man caught on surveillance cameras broke into the 17 Greene Avenue market using a screwdriver. The man took the market's cash register as another man stood lookout outside, police said.

But the thieves didn't find themselves with much of a prize, police said — the cash register was empty.

The door of the market was damaged, though, by the man using a screwdriver to break in. Both fled from the store in an unknown direction.

Police describe one of the men as being in his 50s with a salt and pepper beard, last seen wearing a blue zippered hoodie, black hat with gray trim, blue jeans and blue sneakers.

Anyone with information in regard to the identities of these males is asked to call the NYPD's Crime Stoppers Hotline at 1-800-577-TIPS (8477) or for Spanish, 1-888-57-PISTA (74782).
