Police are asking for the public's help in bringing two men to justice for a string of armed bodega robberies in the Bronx.
Authorities say the two men struck nine stores in less than a month. The crime spree started Christmas Day and includes a Holland Avenue bodega in early January. A store clerk told investigators the men, one of whom was wearing a ski mask, pushed him to the back of the store.Police say the robbers turned off several cameras at one store, but other cameras caught them in the act. Anyone with information about the robberies is asked to call Crime Stoppers at 1-800-577-TIPS.
