Police say they're looking for 33-year-old Eldin Ahmetovic and 32-year-old Yulia Bushuyeva in connection with at least a dozen break-ins. Most have occurred in the last month in Astoria.
Astoria resident Fedra Long had her laptop stolen when the pair allegedly broke in through a window on her fire escape.
Long told 1010 WINS reporter Al Jones that she would be taking extra security precautions in the future to protect her home.
"We now have the window actually held in place with a couple of wooden stakes," she said.
