Crooks tried to rob Lamar Jewelry on Fifth Avenue and 72nd Street Jan. 31.
Two masked thieves ran up to the shop at 7 p.m. and swung sledgehammers at the window while a third person held a bag. When they couldn’t break the glass to get to the jewelry, they ran away.
No arrests have been made.
According to ABC 7, the store had triple-pane glass that will cost $15,000 to replace.
On Dec. 8, two people used hammers to try to break a front window display at Pyramids Jewelry II on Fifth and Ovington avenues. The window shattered but didn’t break through and the thieves fled in a blue Sedan.
