The NYPD on Thursday arrested two thieves stealing mail, following a timely tip from Boro Park Shomrim.
Shomrim tells YWN that it received a call from a Kensington resident reporting two individuals who had opened a mailbox at Ditmas and E. 3rd.
A Shomrim member responded and followed the pair of suspects, who promptly opened and stole mail from another box, at which point police were summoned.
Shomrim continued following the thieves until 41st Street between 15th and 16th Avenues, where NYPD officers arrived and placed the offending suspects under arrest.
Police found a master and stolen mail in their vehicle, and both are facing federal charges for stealing mail.

Sorry. Waste of time, as they will be back on the street in no time…
To be let out of custody almost immediately because of the insane “bail-reform” that keeps criminals on the streets! What’s the point of even arresting them when the DAs just let them out.
MDshweks: it must be a typo. You probably meant they will be BLACK on the street in no time?
It?s a federal offense. It doesn?t fall under NYS bail baloney.
