NYPD Crime Stoppers on Friday released surveillance images and asked the public to help identify a person wanted in a burglary pattern stretching across two Queens precincts. The incidents were reported within the confines of the 109th and 111th Precincts, and police say tips that lead to an arrest may qualify for a cash reward.
According to NYPD Crime Stoppers, tipsters could receive up to $3,500 if their information results in an arrest and indictment. The post lists the Crime Stoppers website, the hotline at 1-800-577-TIPS and a Spanish line at 1-888-57-PISTA as ways to submit anonymous tips, and it directs people to the department's X account @NYPDTips for direct messages.

Where police say the break-ins happened
The department says the burglaries occurred within the 109th and 111th Precincts. The 109th covers Flushing and Whitestone, and the 111th patrols Bayside and Douglaston, according to the NYPD's precinct pages on NYC.gov and NYC.gov.
How to submit a tip
Anyone with information is asked to submit anonymous tips through Crime Stoppers or by calling the hotline at 1-800-577-TIPS; Spanish speakers can call 1-888-57-PISTA. The post also notes that people can message @NYPDTips on X with any relevant footage or leads.
Pattern echoes recent cases
Detectives have leaned on public tips before when surveillance footage helped crack multi-precinct burglary sprees across Queens and Brooklyn. Earlier this year, the NYPD released stills tied to a Brooklyn-Queens burglary pattern in March, and local reporting also linked pharmacy break-ins to precincts including the 109 and 111, according to Citizen.
Police stress that residents should not approach anyone shown in the images and instead pass information directly to investigators. Anyone with doorbell, dash-cam or surveillance footage that might help is urged to contact Crime Stoppers so detectives can follow up.
