The duo first struck on Aug. 20 around 4:40 a.m. at a store on 56th Street near Fifth Avenue in Sunset Park, according to authorities.

They reportedly crawled under the closed front gate and fled with a full tip jar.

Exactly a week later at the exact same time in the morning, the pair of thieves broke the closed front gate of a store on Third Avenue near 86th Street in Bay Ridge and again made off with cash, officials said.

Police are asking anyone with information on the burglaries to call the NYPD's Crime Stoppers Hotline at 1-800-577-TIPS (8477) or for Spanish, 1-888-57-PISTA (74782). Anonymous tips can also be submitted on the Crime Stoppers website or on Twitter @NYPDTips.
