Authorities are looking for two men in black pullover masks seen on camera stealing a Dodge truck -- and the car carrier of vintage vehicles it was hauling -- in Brooklyn last month, the NYPD says.
According to police, a 2017 White Dodge Ram, unoccupied, was parked on Atlantic Avenue outside a healthcare facility around 4 a.m. on Tuesday, June 25. The truck was hauling a trailer that had three vehicles -- a 1955 Chrysler Imperial, a 1966 Ford Mustang and a 1968 Chevrolet Camaro -- on it.
Surveillance video shows two individuals pull up to the area on Atlantic Avenue near Berriman Street in East New York in a white SUV. They apparently hook the Dodge up to their vehicle, and then are seen on video driving the entire car carrier away.
No injuries were reported.
Those who work in the area said the pickup truck and trailer were usually parked in the same spot on this corner.
Across the city, grand larceny auto crimes are down 10.2% compared to the same time in 2023 — though in the area where the crime occurred in June, grand larceny is up 11.4%.
