Trio Shoplifts $15K in Fur Coats, Police Say

A trio of shoplifters made off with five fur coats from a Brooklyn store and police on Sunday released images of them taken by a surveillance camera.

The photos show two men and a woman posing as shoppers at the Macy's Backstage store on Emmons Avenue in the Sheepshead Bay neighborhood.

The trio entered the store at about 8:10 p.m. Friday, removed locked wires on five fur coats, stuffed them into a bag and fled, investigators said.

The furs are valued at approximately $15,000.

Anyone with information about the suspects is asked to call the NYPD Crime Stoppers Hotline at 800-577-TIPS.
